DecemberWinds Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I've searched and I haven't found this suggestion yet so I think it's new. Anyways, with more and more advanced tutorials being written, there are now more and more pictures in each post. Whenever I, an innocent slow internet user, clicks on a tutorial that looks cool, my computer freezes for like 2 minutes because of all the pictures. If we had "hide tags" we could hide the pictures until we really need to see them. That would save a lot of hassle. I've seen a lot of other forums use this tag so why shouldn't we use it?

david.atwell Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 The problem with Hide tags is that the browser still loads the image, it just doesn't display it until you show it.

And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.Amy: But how did it end up in there?The Doctor: You know fairy tales.

Not if you loaded the image with a blank placeholder and the image was changed on a click of the "Show" button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.atwell Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Yeah, 'cause THAT wouldn't be a bunch of work... Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior...

Rick Brewster Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 We can't do anything like this with the way the forums are being hosted by Forumer. Even then, this is a problem that solves itself over time as more people get away from dial-up, so I don't believe it would warrant much effort to solve it anyway.
