David, yes it does. While the storage of data costs money, the real money is in the bandwidth used to transfer data from the server to your home PC. If you do not want to risk loosing an image hosted elsewhere, attach it here and provide a link to a larger photo via any image hosting site - that's what they are there for.

Some forum users have remarked they like the thumbnails because it costs less time to view a thread (especially those with slow connections). That is a factor to take into consideration also.

Thanks & regards,
Hanno

Hi Keefy
Is that one of your thumbs that you didn't move out of the way before you hit a stud with a large hammer?
