Either that, or use Putfile like Creech did. I honestly don't know whether the software did that or if Creech resized them all, but the &s following the .jpg extension would appear to indicate to me that the software on Putfile did it.
The problem with resizing images in your code be it HTML or BB Mike, is that it doesn't reduce the file size at all. All it does is present a smaller rendition of the original image on the page. Which would prevent the page from blowing up here, but... The file being served is still the original image and it is identical in all respects except the dimensions seen on the page. If it weighs 80 kb and you thumbnail it by defining dimensions in your code, it still weighs 80 kb as a thumbnail.
Loading that many images to this page in that fashion would make it entirely inaccesible by dial-up users. In fact the page is very likely too much for some of the slower dial up connections we have here already. He's got 60 images up there, probably running on average 5 - 6kb from what I saw in testing a few, therefore 300 - 350kb + the weight of the page itself, all avatars, smilies, etc, etc. for total page weight. We're probably talking somewhere around 450 - 500 kb here on this page. With dial-up that equates to several minutes to full page load.
As small as the images are up there, they probably aren't loading all at once however, and since the images aren't preloaded on these boards, they may not create a problem. They'll load through mutiple channels or feeds on the server, allowing pieces of the page a chance to load as each thumbnail finishes and another starts. Much of the page will be cached through CSS, and therefore the page will load albeit slow, and the images will slowly pop in as the viewer scrolls down the line.
If you loaded 60 images scaled down in your code without physically resizing them, that would be a totally different story! There you're talking probably an 80 - 100 kb average file size and total page weight of 5000 - 6000 kb on the above images. Images that size will load all feed streams to the nuts, they'll load slow to begin with, the pieces of the page will be hung up while the images load, and the page itself will take forever and then some to fully load, even if parts of it are cached. Poor Dale would be sitting there for HOURS on his connection!!
As a rule it's usually best to resize and compress a second copy of the image for use as a thumbnail, it works much smoother that way.
