I thought of this because of Cobalt-T but it is not a personal attack on him.

I think we should try to limit the number of non-chess related photos we post in the forums since it just slows everything down for everyone.

Having slow internet, it takes a while to load photos and when they do nothing to add to the discussion it simply makes reading the forums annoying.

Thanks, Galen

i understand the concern and i haven't really thought of that... because i do have a fast connection and a fast computer. but I also think that graphics are part of the majesty of the digital age that we are in, now if the images were unrelated to the message or just overly abundant i would side closer with you... and I'm by far not the first or the only to do it.

I know that your not the only person who does this, but i mentioned you because I noticed an abundence of your posts this morning.

I also was wondering, do these photos get stored on the servers of Chess.com or elsewhere because they could be a bit annoying for eric and his staff if they have to save them for ever and ever.

nah... mine are linked from websites
