100mb ??? How about 1 meg which is the server allowed maximum :)

Anyway many people agree with your observation and many of us regulars
are applying peer pressure to help keep image file sizes down. This
for the most part appears to be working though the occassional visitor

once in a while. I think it's getting better and it may not be as bad
as you think it is.
