Just out of curiousity, is there any particular reason that HTML is disabled in all posts?
When I personally post pics, I prefer to thumbnail the pics and host all images, both thumbnails and regular images on my own server. This way the thumbnails remain very small and allow the thread to load quickly, while the images can be somewhat larger for those that wish to view them. In addition, by hosting the images on my own site, there are lower bandwidth requirements imposed on the persons hosting the forums.
Doing this is nearly impossible without some basic html. I suppose I could post separate url's for the larger pics, next to all of the thumbnails, but its much easier to just do some quick html tags, and looks much better too!
I really dont see many negatives in allowing those that wish, to use HTML tags.
Just curious, thanks!
