Vote for auto-resize of large pictures

[Mux213]

Hmmm, I wonder if php can figure out sizes for pictures, the only way it could do it I guess is if it parses the imagines itself so you never directly link to the picture but you link to a php script that loads the picture specified between the img tags into the server memory and resizes it before sending it to the browser. Also I wonder if php knows the size it needs to resize to as it has no information about the clients dimentions I think.

It will make things slower for pictures that are not stored on the server though.

It is possible to attach pictures to messages that get resized automatically when uploaded to the server. But that would mean pictures get stored on the server. That in itself is not to bad as our server has plenty of room but still it may put limits on what we can do.

So we'll look into some possibilities. For now I guess we just need to make a rule that pictures in posts should not be wider then 640 pixels and that posters should ensure this.
