Alright, I edited some posts on the current page to use the >>t thing.
If you want to use !imageurl!
I guess you can do that but embed the small
version, not large
Smaller pics cause the page to load MUCH faster (if I want to see a bigger version I’ll just go to the pic) and also less jumping while loading. I recently did the same to the Previously Featured Images thread, which (for me) now loads in a couple of seconds instead of nearly a minute.
I also updated the OP to reflect this, as well as added an additional note about checking the dA source before mentioning it here.
