[edit] Me
I discovered Wikipedia on 9th February 2004, and started editing on 11th April 2006. I am from the centre of the Midlands in the UK. I tend to create very small articles. I hope someone will expand them one day.
I believe that images should be generally entered as thumb, without an explicit size, so that individual users can choose what size is best for them in terms of download bandwidth (speed and cost), and in terms of ink used when printing (particularly for drafts of changes). I appreciate the value of a good colourful photograph in the right place in an article, but:
That's why I use thumb anyway.
- if you like big pictures you can set your default in my preferences
- if you like small pictures, then ditto
- different browsers will show different things to different people
- viewing on a different screen size will change the appearance greatly from the "ideal" set by one editor on a given computer
If you don't think I am doing the right thing, please let me know on my Talk Page.
