So if I upload a large pic to imgur and copy and paste the link in blf using the insert image option then click on relative width and set to 50% does blf have to resize the image ever time it’s viewed and the page loads slow?
This is how I do it to make sure the image doesn’t take up the whole page. If it’s slowing down browsing for some members I’ll resize the image in imgur first before linking.
Most people won’t because their DSL, cable, whatever is fast enough. But when on cell data those big files gobble data unnecessarily. Sometimes when I can see the images “painted” line by line I could scream.

I don’t know about others, the issue I have is the size in the thread. What set this off was a seller posted these enormous pictures that I kept scrolling and scrolling….then hit these tiny posts.
If people put “100” then it’s post width and that should be fine. For me…but others may have data and speed issues on their phones.
DB…I have a spectacular view like this from my inherited house in the old country. Too bad the house is over a century old and hardly anybody lives in the village.
That photo was taken from just below Nogal Peak looking towards Ski Apache in the mountains just North/Northwest of Alto, New Mexico. It’s actually 43 images at 18MP in 3 tiers, taken with a Canon 7D and 24-105mm lens at 105mm.
I envy you, the view there was breathtaking, my wife and I enjoyed it immensely. The town of Nogal on the North side of Nogal Pass is only 96 people, only even on the map because the Post Office has been there since 1880.
To illustrate max-width, here’s an image of two Emisar D18s. It’s 619px wide, so if you view it on a typical phone, it will be wider than the post panel, or the phone’s screen. Viewed on a desktop, it’s considerably narrower than the space available.
First, with max-width: 100%
And now with width: 100%
Both fill 100% of the space on a narrow screen, but the second is stretched on a wider screen.
I always put 95. I absolutely cannot stand when people ignore scaling their image. Maybe the webmaster can set some kind of default width of 100? That way this catches mistakes. But yeah, I also think it’s painfully negligent and inconsiderate for people to embed images greater than a couple megabytes. 15Mb? That’s OBNOXIOUS.
Nothing to envy….in fact it’s pitiful. It’s in the old country and maybe 10 people live in the village in winter. 100 in the summer. If I don’t pour money into it, it’s going to fall.
Every time i go back, I check up on it, but never slept a night in my life in it. But the view….oh God. It’s feeds the eyes and the soul.
