*bumped because I want EVERYONE to see this*
Alright, I've tolerated this as long as I can, but now it's wearing thin. And I know this doesnt bother only myself.
Can everyone please not put screenie dumps on the pictures page?
It just makes for total and utter hell for those with slow computers/internet waiting for all those screenies in one post to load. And when multiple people do it it's just...frustrating waiting for all those pictures to load when you want to see something else.
It is possible for everyone who wants to put a whole lot of pictures in one place to make a screenie journal? It's not that hard. It works in the same way....
Ok yes, I know...they're pictures/screenshots and they do belong there...just not in HUGE piles...and it pushes down art that people post too.
Oh look Raz complained again *smacked*
How to Resize and Crop in:
I'll start with the Crop tool, it looks the same in every single program, the little squarey looking thing:
When you click on it you can drag a box in your image and what's inside that box is what the image changes to. Usually you double click inside that box and it crops the image.
Photoshop:

I just use the 'Percentage' option. For example if you put 50 in the text box, the image will be reduced to half it's size.
Paintshop Pro 6:

Same thing as photoshop, I use the percentage option.
If anyone else uses any other programs, dont hesitate to comment with them on here and 'how to'
I agree +1 I wish people

I wish people would resize them too X_x
I must say that I agree with

Like I said on msn...yeah XD
Yeah mine too, 56k modem speed hates on it, and especially if I have other things going on at the same time (other Firefox tabs) it makes it go very slowly.

Ok, I kinda understand where
I kinda understand where you are coming from and it also kinda annoys me if I'm honest. There is a screen shots section for a reason, if you don't want to see them don't click on it, that is why there are sections.
I crop the majority of my images as well, they are not huge and they do not in most 99% of cases stretch the page so i am well within my rights to post long lines of screen shots when I want to, and links to rage journals because people are still on 56k connections make me want to do it even more, because for some reason you feel your inadequate internet connection gives you an excuse to tell people what to do.
If you had left a polite comment rather than a link to a rage people might be more inclined to listen.
However as I'm unwilling to make this into a big internet drama lama I will try and remember to use the break tags from now on so you don't have to wait for images you feel are not worth your obviously precious time.
Yes that is true, now...what
Now you're just being inconsiderate and rude...going to be posting huge piles of screenshots just to annoy those with bad internet connections? And I am not the only one who has a bad connection. So it's not just for myself thank you very much.
It is a lot easier for someone to put in the break codes instead of waiting for the pictures page to load, and go click on the other options.
See, I don't leave a comment because all I have to say is in this journal. I'd be repeating myself if I left a comment.
And thank you for at least using the break codes. Next time, dont be so rude.

The sections are really handy if you want to not-look at screeny's indeed. Unfortunately, not everyone always notices they're there! Which means that sometimes art or other stuff get's the wrong section, so it's not much of a help That, and we're all curious humans who would like to look at all things posted.
But, darling Kovah, I do -not- see a rage of people here. Not ANYONE is being angry at people who do the screeny dumps, they're JUST bringing it to attention. Raz even put a PLEASE in her question. Who else still does that nowadays? Personally, I think you're overreacting a bit And everyone should always consider eachother, because those are the ones you want to be looking at your screeny's, right? Maybe a diary in which you post them is a good idea Makes everything tidy.
So please don't accuse people of flaming you (Or how you'd call it XD) When they ain't. And Raz'd be repeating herself if she'd most much more as the link. Right?
Mis is out again~! Hope I haven't been offensive.

Thank you, Pegasicorn!
*hides from drama*
Seel: The journal came
The journal came across to me as hostile and preachy, hence my response. A simple "Would you mind putting break tags in please?" would have elicited a much better response from me than a link to this journal.
I may have over reacted a little, i was sleepy and grumpy when i replied but as I said the journal did not come across to me as a polite way to ask someone to do something. I took it badly as far as I was concerned posting screen shots, in the screen shot section that have already been cropped down was not something I thought was wrong.
Draak:
I never said I *would* be posting huge amounts of screen shots, I said I *wanted* to, it was a little immature but I was annoyed. I've said what I thought about the journal above and what would have helped instead of merely posting a link, I was a little rude and rather sarcastic but your journal came across as very preachy to me not polite on your part even though you put a few pleases in there.
Next time I wont be so rude if you don't post a link to a journal like this to tell me something.
I will agree to have a slightly differing opinion on this to you - and apologise for over reacting a little, but please understand that i am used to having a fast internet connection and its never even crossed my mind that people are still on 56k. So i wish you faster internets and maybe see you in the forest.
It's not that Raz has a 56k

"If you don't like something, tolerate it."
i'm sorry,but...i agree with
i mean, i'm not mad at you, it's just that...people could have worked hard to edit the pictures, make a couple of designs and so-so, and then you would have just posted the link, saying we should not do that, or, i should say, -ask- if we can stop, doing that, it could hurt or annoy the posting person . In my opinion, is to at least say something positive about the picture first, before you post the link.
I also do agree with YOU, it does sort of lag my computer, when I have bad internet days, so I DO approve of this post.
All i'm saying is to be a little more kind when commenting on someone's post to say that there is something wrong, or something the problem with it.
thank you .
oh, i'm sorry if this comment made you mad, i wouldn't like it if i did .
.:Mute:.
I have never posted this
That's the thing, I tried to make this journal sound as positive as I could. Nicely telling people that what theyre doing is badly affecting others internet.
