It does not matter where they are (unless the source is crap). It's just that when they're full images, all data has to be downloaded. Whereas if they're thumbnails, you save a lot of data download (if they're real, properly resized images, not just ones resized via javascript on client side).Bails MacKenzie wrote:I link them through photobucket, but that still might be a bit more load intensive than imgur, never really checked.ysu wrote:Just to give you a hint how to actually make things load quicker: thumbnails.
Eg load the whole thing onto imgur, dropbox, you name it, and just link via thumbnails here.
(no don't do it, just saying - for me it loads in a split second anyway)

Not so much cool as fucking dumb. I guess getting a remote for the camera was too hard.

As far as I can make out that's Jackie Stewart in the 1967 Tyrrell F2 car. But in that year he only raced it at Snetterton, Silverstone, Jarama, Autodromo di Pergusa and Brands Hatch.
