problem with large inlined images

[altenbach]

One of the annoying aspects when inlining images is the fact that it seems to be possible to blow the margins by any amount with no limit. Once a thread contain an image a few thousand pixels wide, all posts in the thread will wrap the text at a width of several screens wide, putting entire paragraphs on single lines and forcing the reader to constantly scroll left and right while reading.

Lithium really should find a solution for this. Other forums automatically reaplace inlined images above a certain size with a smaller thumbnail version, which, when clicked would open the full-sized image in a new window.

That's an important point. I find it a bit annoying that LAVA (for example) does this even for relatively small images. Ideally, it should depend on the client's resolution, but I don't remember whether web browsers receive that information or not.

Thanks everyone - I will forward this suggestion along to Lithium (again).  I'll try to find out if they have any plans along these lines.
