I would think viewing any pictures based thread, you would just know going in that you will risk running into large file sizes both gif and png wise. Just common knowledge. Stop using your phone, get back on your Mac or something.

Moot point if the f*cking carriers would stop being such retarded douche bags and make unlimited data an affordable option.  I pay enough every month for a shitty phone that doesnt work half the time anyway.

I've personally had no problem with it because I don't use a phone to surf here. But I know my iPod Touch is pretty much crippled when viewing GIFs bigger than a couple MB simply because it's a shitty piece of hardware. It's a 4th gen. iPhones are a bit more powerful but are still just as crippled by the iOS. So you've got the crappy iOS and then you've got the crappy GIF format (which is ancient and not optimized at all).


EDIT: I was going to post the world's largest GIF just for fun, but my ambitions were too grand. I was limited to 500 frames at 1920x1080 30fps but when it came time to actually write the file to disk, Photoshop kept giving me errors. Oh well.

It's so weird seeing people sitting down to play arcade games. Or maybe they stand at candy cabs in Japan but Americans need to sit? I honestly do not know.

Because our society has been making efforts to eliminate all effort needed to do anything  these days that requires physical or mental strain of any type. Why stand when you can sit? Why walk when you can ride around on a segway. With each new generation they are going to be lazier and lazier. Note the hats being worn in the pic? So much effort and thought was required to pick a tasteful or proper hat that day, that they simply succumbed to the overwhelming amounts of stress involved and just grabbed the first thing in front of them from their little sisters closet. Thats what it is boiling down to, laziness on even the most minutiae levels. Its amazing these kids were even willing to play any arcade games at all. I imagine in the future the only arcade games any kid will be willing to play are the laserdisc titles, due to their intense training on quick time event play. Anything else will require too much effort and skill.
