A rant.
Guys, browsers are *web browsers*
They are not image manipulation programs. Despite what programmers may want to plug into them, the fact remains that firefox HATES resizing images on the fly.
Plz don't do it then. Just friggin' make THUMBNAILS.
You do not save bandwidth by forcing an image to display at a fraction of its size, but you do cause my RAM usage to leap through the roof.
Thank you.
(I finally realized that #eoffstats page was so slow about loading because of THOUSANDS OF RESIZED IMAGES. It makes me ;_; )
