Can we please do something about this? People simply cannot grasp the fact that quoting multiple pictures is annoying to the rest of us. And it's not just a couple people here; a ton of them do it! 
It slows down the loading time for people on slower connections and is just generally a royal pain in the *** for the rest of us.
This thread is a good example:

Not the worst I've ever seen in terms of quoting them, but just shows you how ridiculous it gets. People quote six and seven huge pictures just to make a comment like "OMG I LOVE YOUR CAR".
Is there anyway to put a hack into the system that turns all quoted pics into thumbnails? We have that over at LS2.com and it works wonderfully. Either that, or make it more well known that quoting multiple pics shouldn't be done.

Its a built-in feature in the new version of software that Brains is working on. When that gets implemented, you'll see it.
In the meantime, mods just have to go through threads and edit the replies to remove the img tags.

Sounds great guys.
Glad the issue is being addressed and thanks for all your hard work. It makes such a difference around here!
Oh, and Tony.....
I should've expected that. I'm a smartass as well, so I'm pretty sure I'd have done the same.

I edit the pics out as best I can. I normally leave a little note saying "Remove IMG tags from pics PLZTHNKX", or something to that nature.
