Prefer pics 'in text' or posted as thumbnails ? POLL

Hi shroomers, I've never tried posting a 'poll', hope it works... I was wondering whether most people prefer pics to be posted 'in the text' (such that they load up full size automatically), or as thumbnails... personally I'd much prefer peeps posted all their pics as thumbnails, cause that way you don't have to wait ages while all the pics (most of which you've already seen) load up, just to get a look at any new ones that may have been posted in the thread. But hey that's just me... it's not an issue for the lucky-ducks on cable/ ADSL I spose, so I guess my question is more directed at dial-up users... ?

Drag yourself out of the dark ages and get cable. Dial up = atari heres a big pic for you. see the "cable hounds" destroy the "dial up" pig.

Chuckle Mr Hanky... I would if I were richer, but what about peeps for whom cable is not even available in their area (it is available in mine, admittably...) That pic is goddamn DISTURBING btw... any chance you could remove it from this mellow little thread, if I asked you nicely... PLEEEASE ?

There you go....it's only $60 a month for unlimited mb's. 12.50 a week less than $2 a day.
get cable or set your options not to display any pics lol.

Who gives you unlimited MB for 60 clams...? One of the reasons I haven't got it is all the cable deals seem to have limits/ pay extra per meg after limits exceeded... which I hate... unlike my little 25 clam/ month dial up connection...

I've never come accross a cable deal that doesn't have a limit matts... maybe it's an annoying feature of Australia... Eagerly awaiting hearing which company Mr Hanky goes through though... I reckon I'd pay 60 a month for unlimited cable... PS. $40 US roughly = $60 Australian... same as the Hankster...

Doesn't satelite only allow you to 'receive, but not to 'send/ upload' ? That's no good to me if so...

WEll what I have is fast enough for me.
Shit I am already paying for varius upgrades on shit I got on my computer, security, Cute FTP, etc.
I get microsoft and Adobe updates automatically. But I have never been off line in the five years. My service has been connected. Allt he time Comcast is advertising at $29 a mont and up. AOL the same shit. Why whould I want to be on a service with 30 to 50 million users. Crash crash.
AOL is expensive for regular service. And I am not aware if you are aware thaere are acutally free internet links to free online services you download to your computer and get on line without paying. However ithat is slow.
I had Quest for 6 months, Thats a local Seattle Phone company. Had to call them five to ten times a week to get me on line. They cost my internet business some money at the time, took 2 months to send me the netscape disc. They ended up giving me free service for 1 year. I transfered the payments from dial-up to to my phone line.
Then got NW link and they are cool. Never had to call them but one time,
Sometime the Shroomery is slow though and otehr sites are very fast. mj

if you just edit the upload text you can put pics or thumbs or you can just add text.
its pretty versatile for each user.
i say what ever the user wants to do.
not that hard
