I was just about to post the same thing and then saw your message. Personally, its not so much the look of it that I dont like, which btw I dont really care for, but more that it slows down the loading time of the page I am trying to look at. Especially the screen shot forum since every post in that forum had pics in it, it really take a while for the page to load. Personally, since the thumbs are so small, I dont really see the value in having them in there anyway and would love to be able to turn that feature off.Thanks in advance.

Come on, this really has no sense... a big smiley as a thumbnail?

I am glad someone else mentioned it.....I thought it was just me.I personally dislike the thumbnails in the avsim screenshot forum a lot! I find it makes it messy (that is aside from loading times) and does not feel like home anymore to me.Could we have a poll in the avsim screenies forum please?

Hey Word Not Allowed, see my thread here regarding the website format changing up refreshing.It keeps alternating off and on between left justified and center justified... no real pattern on when, it just keeps doing it off and on.I am thinking this maybe started happening around the same time these thumbnails started appearing...

Don, never noticed any problems. Mine is always in the middle, I think.I'm just wondering why there are 0 responses from admins on this one... :huh:

Yep, all done apparently. Thanks to whoever listened :)

Yes, I removed them from the FSX forum but left them in the Screen shots forum, where they seem appropriate.

Noo, please no. These thumbnails look terrible. Seriously. Sometimes not even working correctly - pic-ratio is not correct, it looks distorted, the whole forum looks desorientating and messy... I really enjoy SS forum, but without those Thumbnails it looks way more cleaner and nicer.EDIT: But as someone suggested, we can do a poll what users think?

Until this started, mine was always left justified which is how I prefer it anyway - still doing the alternating thing off and on now though... :sad: perhaps one day it will just simply correct itself.

Because we have been busy trying to fix the problem... Which it now is. It had nothing to do with the thumbnail discussion.

Sweet, apparently it is - thank you very much! So far so good now - sorry for the wrong assumption, with it just starting around that same time I was thinking maybe perhaps..So glad you guys got this fixed!
