Does size matter?

I was looking at the "seen a good movie lately" thread, and noticed how long it is...soon to be 100 pages, nearing 2000 posts.  And I wondered:  should we start a new one?  And then I wondered, does it matter?  I mean, are shorter threads that much easier to access?  Is there any real benefit to closing down huge threads?

I have no idea.

I don't know why this is a thread, but here's a picture of a dude stepping in poop.

Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

As for the question itself, that depends on who you ask.  T-hawk and Chuggie have been arguing about this for years.  T-hawk likes them big.  And Chuggie prefers enormous.

I don't think it really matters.

As far as performance goes, it doesn't matter if the posts are in one group (a like a thread) or split between 10 groups. It's more an overall impact of the total number of posts than how they are grouped.

doesn't matter as long as people don't have a heart attack when somethings double posted, not read etc..   you can be damn sure i'm not reading through all of it.

Speaking of size, has the ability to re-size a picture in a post been stripped from us?  If it's still possible, how do I do it?

So, width has to be defined before height, or it doesn't work?

Got it.
