What can be said Spidey?
I dont want to upset you. You should know, if you do not already know, that I look to you as a loyal co member. And as a compadre. I appreciate your zeal on this issue, truly.
However; and dont take this personally because it is not. But Roo is the final decision maker. The mods can request, ask or suggest, but Roo makes all final choices.
WE went thru a variety of pic sizes to determine which ones would stay within the course of Roo admin's preference. Based on their sig size preference we brought the issue to the table.
Although Roo never abdicated the option to the members, it was never a norm that they should. In keeping with the fact they choose to remain in control of the forum so all members will be able to surf without difficulties.
We do know that not every person will be satisfied with every rule, the rules still must be decided upon. A private forum will not always match what is suitable for everyone, so the rules must be made in regards to all that apply. IE, the pics must be smaller so that those who have the most trouble loading the pages are not forced to abstain from the threads that have higher resolution tables.
Think of it this way, m'dearest, if someone is now able to join in because the pics do not hinder them, you may meet some new and productive members who could be otherwise alienated.
Think positively, for every action, they must be a reason.
Peace!
