Image resizing with img tag

Post by Arthur Dent »

It would be nice if the img tag allowed resizing of images by adding width and height imformation to the html tag. That way hotlinked images that are too big could be posted without using a graphics editor. Something like:

[img=w,h]foo.gif[/img]

Is there a mod that does this?

On an unrelated note, the board clock is about five minutes too fast.

also, could we have some kind of tasty snack supplied, maybe around 2 or 3 pm? maybe fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies? my browser is already set to allow cookies.

Michael would have to enable html for that, then you could just do:

<img src="http://gatewayredbirds.com/forum/styles ... ew_old.jpg" width="100" height="100" />

Keep in mind that this would solve the giant images breaking the page aspect of large image files, but would not fix the zomga-that-file-takes-ten-minutes-to-download problem.

Sorry for the late reply. I'll take a closer look this weekend.
