I like this. It means people who post absurdly oversized images won't be able to screw up thread loading.

We have received quite a few complaints about peoples pics that are uploaded via a hosting site that are waaaaaaay too big. The site does a decent job of re-sizing some (attachments etc), but the hosted pics are set via the remote site.

So yes, we chose 1024, which is still pretty damn wide.

What I do is use the URL/IMG code that most sites provide. This way you can have a decent sized picture, but the viewer can click it for a even BIGGER version.

People still use photobucket? Maybe from their AOL dialup accounts and IE 5.0?
