This site does have a tag (like img, URL, font, youtube, etc) for "image size" — [imgsize=]. When you use it, the poster inserts the dimensions at which he desires the image to be displayed. For an example, take RayThom's oversized image above — which measures a whopping 2,639 × 1,836 pixels.
Now, let's say you wanted to reduce that by a factor of 5 (in other words, 20% of 'actual' size). You would just use the "imgsize" tab and insert the pixel dimensions you wanted the picture to be displayed, so you would end up with a tag that would look like this — [imgsize=528,368](*the desired image url*)[/imgsize] (the first number is horizontal measure; the second number is vertical measure)
— and it would resize the image to the same dimensions as this:
(note that the image I'm using as an example is already sized at 528 x 368; I just found a random image of the appropriate size and posted it for display purposes only)
Sure we can always do the "hold down the control key and scroll" or "right-click and hit view image", but by posting a smaller image to start with it may hold down on bandwidth and the length of time it takes pages to load. So perhaps maybe Gob or whoever is in charge of this board can see about enabling that tag and adding it to our tool kit. -"BB"-

Don't loo at me, if you want a functioning board, I'll keep my hands off the controls.
Maybe RB can do something, if you ask her very nicely the next time she pops in
“If you trust in yourself, and believe in your dreams, and follow your star. . . you'll still get beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy.”

Not even if you're on fire?
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts
When I click to load this board I get a warning message that the connection is not secure, or something to that effect. Is this something we should fix? I'll copy the exact message in my next reply.
As far as I know the connection not being secure here shouldn't be much of a concern. That message has been popping up for years. If you notice in the address window, Plan B's address doesn't begin with https, which would make communications between us and this website encrypted and more secure. But since we don't do financial transactions or post much personal information, there's not much to worry about. Although I suppose a hacker could get into our individual accounts more easily if there is a hacker out there with no life who has nothing better to hack.
