Kudos on image resizing change
I have to commend Mike and Dan or whomever came up with and implemented the idea of resizing images submitted as part of a post - well done!

I know that in the past some of the images I posted inline appeared too large and really needed this fix - this is a very smart and good change for the forums at Tech Guy.

If you post a big picture here it is made smaller .Any [IMG] is made smaller.

Or just post a link to the picture if you want it big and people will click on the link to go to that web site.

All pictures from freeimagehosting ,imageshack,photobucket,tinypic,4freeimagehost so on posted here the big picture is made smaller here.

I just posted my first pic since the cnage and saw the resized feature. I thought it was brilliant too because i've had the same problems with those huge pics in different spots. It will be great for newbies who might not know how to resize before they upload to the site.

Should have an update on the image resizing in the next few days, Mike. (Yes, I now develop it hehe). Any feature requests from anyone?

Currently have :

Resize Blog Image (vB add-on)
on/off option to use lytebox

Oh, and clean up some of the code. Feel free to suggest more features, though.
