Another thing you might consider is increasing compression for demo and
work-in-progress images, as opposed to 'final' images. If for some reason the
image needs to be large, please put it in a web directory and provide a link
here. It really shouldn't be that much hassle for either the poster or the
reader, what with all the free web space available these days.
Also, if posting an image to demonstrate a problem, just a section of the whole
image might suffice. You would save a lot of collective time by cropping the
image to minimum size necessary.
This might seem like a lot of nitpicking, but server space aside - there are
still poor yokels who use modems, and pay per minute online. This is the reason
binaries.images is the only binary group I can afford to download regularly.
