      I've noticed a trend of users uploading files with extremely long thumbnails. These take up a lot of space when browsing for torrents and I find them to be extremely obnoxious and annoying. Is there a way to set a limit to the height of an image so people don't take up so much space?

        First, to acknowledge that the overall redesign is great – but also agree that some thumbnails are sooooooooooooooooo long, it makes viewing cumbersome.

        There's a frequent need to toggle up and down, between one upload with (it seems) up to 10 images -- mostly because of the "film reel" type of multi-pics -- and the next upload, which may have a single image.

        It's a minor inconvenience that may simply take time to get accustomed.  (But then again, they really can be long.)      :crazy2:

          I agree that it's inconvenient, but it's also inconsiderate and lazy.  I think most of these thumbnail "filmstrips" are copied from publishers' websites, and a few mouse clicks of cut and paste can turn these into more manageable images.

          That being said, at least these uploaders are providing images.  More and more people are omitting this required step.  I never download those torrents.

            I'm finding myself not even looking at or downloading those with long filmstrip images in the Browse view. I'm constantly missing good, unique stuff because I've inadvertently scrolled past it trying to get the page to refresh more content.

            Either they need to ALL be filmstripped, or they need to not have the stacked images at all. It's really annoying, confusing for navigation, and unfair to those older films with lower quality images and resolutions.
