Please include size in post icon tags

[Staffan]

Currently, the HTML tags that show the post icons look like this:
<img src="images/icons/dm/campaigndesign.gif" alt="DM Topics - Campaign Design" border="0" />

Would it be possible to include the width and height in those? AFAIK, all post icons are the same size, so little non-techy Staffan imagines it wouldn't be too much work. The reason I'd like that is that it would probably increase the speed at which the forum pages are displayed, since the browser doesn't have to wait for the gif to download before allocating the correct space.

The new tag would look something like this: <img src="images/icons/dm/campaigndesign.gif" alt="DM Topics - Campaign Design" width="70" height="30" border="0" />.

The same could be done for other inline images, like the "new post" icon, and the icon that you can click on to go to the first unread post in a thread.

M-Squared is offline through then and is likely the person who should be looking into this issue, IIANM.

Ah, thank you. I'll bump this thread and the strikethrough one then.

Bump, now that MM is hopefully available again.

Your request is simply a matter of modifying the threadbit template, and I'll do it when I get my system back. I don't want to log in as an admin from an internet kiosk for security reasons.

Ok, done.

For those wondering what this change is about, it helps speed up the browser's rendering of the page and keeps the layout correct if one of the images fails to load.

Yay! Thou kicketh verily manifold buttocks, man!
