Displaying photos inline

[Jon]

Yup, inline 800px-width photos are the way to go in forums. Smaller photos that are clicked to display an enlarged version are in part a relic of lower-bandwidth days, and very large or high-resolution photos are simply not necessary for forums. This inline method also means that you do not need some sort of image indexing or referencing system ("see photo #3 at the bottom..."). Of course people have to consciously arrange their photos in their text, which might disincentivize people from adding photos, so the all-in-one photo attachment method does serve its purpose.

Your posts reminds me of a keyboarding speed tricks post that I've been composing for a while now. Everything from using Control-L to focus in the browser address bar, to learning Dvorak typing. Every time I think the post is complete I remember another keyboard shortcut that I use frequently.
