multiple large images... it's an euphemism  

Before I got Starlink, my internet connection was limited in GB per month and speed, I cannot count how many times I gave up on a page on GC, or go to make a coffee while loading, thus there were many topic I skipt because of the number of huge images inside  

I don't understand why the forum(a script will do) do not auto resize the big images or made a thumbnail (even a big one) to show in post instead of loading those giganormous images directly into post

But in the past there was the option to create thumbnails.
Maybe there still are, they just aren't using this tool.
