Concise description:
  • Image resizer function

Specifics/Details:
  • Add a function to resize

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:

If I want to post a photo of something (e.g. sexy pop star) and the only version of the one I like is 1024x980 or whatever then I will be able to shrink it down to a decent size rather than having no choice but to post a picture so large and unwieldy that people aren't able to see it properly and as a result fail to appreciate the splendor of the image being posted

It would also benefit other people who wish to post other things (e.g. infographics about Japanese war crimes, hamburger recipes)

You should have that feature in whatever image-sharing service is allowed in China. Photobucket, for instance, shrinks 'em down automatically with an option to display the pics at the original size.

But that's so much hassle compared to just copy-pasting the original picture's URL into my forum post.

In actuality, I support this suggestion. I just wanted to have some fun with it.

Bill Gates, King of Computers, would add an image resize function.

Checkmate.

Ah, this is simply one more plot to redistribute the bandwidth, eh?

So is Suggestions like that episode of the Simpsons where Homer puts a note in the complaints box and it slips down a tube, falls out the other end and gets eaten by a goat?
