... and you ignored my hint how to place an Imageshack-thumbnail-link without bothering people with commercials....

Well there was a big argument here about using or not using ImageShack so
I didn't want to go there again. Suffice to say: I use Firefox with AdBlock,
so I never see ads, so I don't care. So who decides who changes? Is it right
for me to change for your convenience, or should you change for mine?

To be diplomatic, I did actually change and use ImgSpot for a while, but
lately when uploading the ImgSpot server was just timing out during the
upload (2 mins for a 50k file? WTF?). So I gave up and went back to using
ImageShack because it seems to be able to handle it. And no, I'm not going
to start editing their URLs because it comes down to who changes for who.

well, adblock or not, it is a difference
- if you have a sole window/tab with a directlinked picture
- or if you have some "click to enlarge"-stuff in a frameset, no matter if ads are there of not

after all, it just was a hint, a tip, how you can use imageshack more effectively.

it's your own problem if you want people to look at your pictures or not.

but be sure, some "use firefox if you want to view my stuff you bloody idiot"
is not the way to reach a lot of "customers"

PS:
oh... and have a nice day.

This is exactly why I didn't want to discuss it; it causes arguments like it did last time. :roll:
