Having full size images would slow things down quite a bit. I am still using phone line modem, so I would really notice the difference if they went to all full size, NO THANKS! With thumbnails, you only see the full size ones that you want to see, thumbnails are great for previews.

I didn't read all the posts, but I have to agree with those I have read: Please keep the thumbnails. Although I have a high speed connection, I realize many RCU users don't. I wouldn't want to chase them away with ridiculously long downloads due to excessive images.
However, I WOULD like to see the upload image size limit increased. To often I have had to shrink 800X600 images to the point where the text becomes blurry. Maybe make the limit based upon file size.
<Edit> I see this has already been looked after. Thanks Marc.
P.S. Marc - how come the spell checker doesn't recognize "RCU" as a valid word yet?

i think it would be cool to have options for thumbnails or not, how big the thumbnail size is(like between 80 and 150 wide...etc etc) then set the resize program to make the images be shrunk to like 640, 800, or 1200 wide for your computer. i think that would be cool, but i dont know how long it would take to get the code for and whatnot.

Please keep the thumbnails!
Graphics any larger than that would KILL us people still using dial-up connections!
...And I'm not dial-up by choice...it's just the only thing available out where I live.
Thanks for giving us vote, instead of just implementing!

ditto here:
I like the way it is. When there are full size images, it stretches the screen which means I have to scroll over to read text.

Thumbnails...Quicker Loading
I like Thumbnails. They are quicker loading even with broadband. On some pictures i would like to see the full size, but I can click on those to see them. I don't need to wait for every picture to load that way. I think it's better netiquette to use the thumbnails as that way people can pick which ones they want to wait on rather than wait on all of them to load. Just my experienced two cents. 
I do have experience with computers and am A+ cert. working on many other things at present. One second to me is alot when those seconds add up to hours in a day. The faster i get to what I need, the quicker I can get off this things and the happier I am. Thanks for listening.

keep the thumbs
Thumbs are the best. I also would like to have a way to upload and download videos as well. More people are getting faster internet service and it is fun to see videos.
