turning off inline images

[trooperiziz]

In the the whizzy-new-fizz-bang forums that are impending, have you thought about an option to turn off images posted inside threads, so those of us read from work, or use GPRS etc... have a bit more flexibility.

maybe use firefox and adblock all at this site ?

Yep. Was chatting to someone at the Motor Show yesterday who reads PH on his PDA and we discussed the same thing.

I'll give it some thought when I'm working on the new bits.

Yeah - maybe just an option to simply remove all [ pic ] tags, thus leaving a link?

good idea - I would prefer it if it just showed a link

Ted, it'd also be usefull if there were a 'worksafe' text only version - if you have people sniffing over your shoulder, PH can be a bit obvious.

Only meant for a mobile phone site, you dont want to be loading up all the graphics on a mobile, but I suspect that unless the site is setup for mobiles they wont be able to read the site

I do however do random clicks on the adverts as i suspect you might get random payments for it ?

I was just thinking this today as well. My desk is in a crap position and my screen can be seen by every tom dick and wotsit inc the boss.
