why repost pics

(Didn't know where else to slot this... and its', really, to the forum world, in general)

Unless its a multi-pic thread, and, you're refrerring back, why do this?

I've often wondered the same thing. Why re-post the same pics a dozen times in a thread?

All you have to do is delete the photo from the post you're quoting.

But back to the original question:

And if you are commenting on one of several pics in a posting, you can delete all but the ONE you are commenting one.

Yes on this. And it's not necess. a dial-up issue. It's a drag to scroll or key down for low payoff.

Exactly. And that begs a question: Why doesn't TGP have a navigation menu at the bottom of the page like it does at the top? Why do we have to scroll all the way back up to navigate back to (and refresh) the forum we're reading?
