You lot had me nervous with all these damaged slips but thankfully my copy is absolutely mint! Got number 0999/2500

Absolutely gorgeous set and pairs up lovely with my other 4K steel of this film
 

Ok you all should be able to see that. I know you don't care for the Instagram links anyway. But my photos all get errors cos they are too big on here. Don't know why I didn't just do this in the first place to be honest.
Oh, that's cool, I didn't know you could share publicly like that!
Is there a limit on how many people or visitors there can be, or how many such albums you can make/share?

Think there was a comment on another thread from Captain Boland saying it slows page loading times down. Personally I've never noticed any issues.
Probably a desktop PC, an old one...

It was Flloydo who mentioned about Instagram links in Leon thread slowing down a thread page loading it was not me who said that.

@walkintom
My post you are referring to had nothing to do with Instagram links and I did not mention Instagram in that post.

My post you are referring in Leon thread was about to use thumbnail images and not use large full size images
Large size images can slow down a website as they take up more bandwidth
What I posted was in regards to inserting large full size images in threads can cause loading times issues and also effects if the device been used by members/visitors to the forum is 2G/3G/4G mobile or other slow internet speed and to insert thumbnail images instead,
Using thumbnail images a website will load faster as the image is smaller and file size of each image is compressed.
Images that are few MB (Megabyte) in file size can slow down a webpage from loading.

1 megabyte (MB) is 1,024 KB (kilobytes)
My images I take on my phone (I then compress those images before posting I upload them to facebook first) and then download that image from facebook and then insert to a thread as Thumbnails the file size range from 16.2KB to 21KB only
That means the thumbnail images won't cause webpage loading issues as been thumbnails file size of each image is very small
When you click on my thumbnail images in threads to see larger image the file size increases a bit but is stilll only about 230 KB

I merely mentioned it. And that was only because you mentioned photos that aren’t thumbnails make threads slower to load which I agree with but I added that IG posts/ YouTube videos and other things can do the same. If you’re on a phone then normal sized pictures and thumbnails make no difference. It’s all the same. Or maybe shaves a second off loading time. That was my point

Anyway, I don’t care. I’ll still post photos how I post photos… with a spoiler.

If I'm honest. I hate looking at compressed photos. What's the point when the images are there to show the details. No way to tell those nuances if they're compressed too much.
I genuinely don't find any issues on any one of our members images with loading.
I'm running a 4g phone still.
Who has an old 2g/3g phone now? I thought those internal infrastructures across most of the world had been shuttered a while ago.

Large photos in spoilers are mostly fine in my experience... it's only when I attempt to open the spoilers that my computer becomes super sluggish, so I just have to avoid clicking them lol

Images that are few MB (Megabyte) in file size can slow down a webpage from loading regardless if person has slow internet or fast but will get lot more noticable when person is using slower internet connection or PC/Laptop has slow CPU/Memory or free hard drive space available.

A website or thread page on that site that is been accessed by a lot by users same time can put an increase on a site server ability to handle packet requests by those users if that webpage has images in hi resolution and the image that was uploaded has a large file size.
Posting photos that has a few MB in size adds strain on a site server for a webpage to load if a lot loading that webpage same time.
You likely will notice this issue less often on a website when it does not have lot of users same time requesting that webpage to load.

This why most retailers for example use thumbnail images and not full size so not to have their website have loading issues when been accessed by millions or billions of users each day.
This also why Facebook will auto compress any images uploaded to their site so it does not cause their server to have issues in loading content they get billions of vists to their site each day.

It's simple images that are only in file size KB will have lot less strain on a site server to load images on a webpage but images that are in uploaded in MB size can cause issues especially if that website is getting lot of vists to that content same time.
 
There's a whole lot of assumptions being thrown around about connections, devices, sever capacity and availability.

Yes it's probably a good idea not to drown every page in 100's of images that are terabytes in size but I've yet to see that really happening, the general recommendations I've seen to put extra photos in spoilers, combine multiple photos into a single for collections/latest acquisitions etc all seemed like reasonably sensible ones.

It was actually this forum that made me try to up my photo game a little, taking care to figure out exactly how a steelbook actually looks, the type of finish, how well that works with the art, lighting reflections etc, keeping them at a relatively high resolution so people can see the finer details while not being obnoxious with size and presentation. I'd hate to think anyone felt reluctant to post this stuff, I think it's invaluable if you're so inclined.

Surely gifs are worse? And the site is loaded with them on every single page

Can't say I have ever noticed. Are you by any chance opening the site on some sort of potato?

Yeah it does struggle with them at times too, but the file size of multiple large photos on a single page is much worse. Not blaming you or anything though... it's very much a "me" problem because of my sh!tty internet
