If you have a slow or average broadband connection the forum rules are a real help ....... 

 

....... and if your broadband connection really is fast then the extra half second loading a linked image is nothing to you.  

 

Our internet connection is now a lot faster, but there are still days when I just have to skip 10 consecutive large images that take longer to load than they merit. 

 

If this was a fine art photography forum with stunning images I'd want, and be prepared to wait, for large images to load, but it isn't. 

 

I have a 'webimage' folder and a LR export preset where they all go. It doesn't exactly take much work or thought .....

Making a special LUF version is exactly what I am trying to avoid.

Why? It is a two-second job.  And you get optimal results.

I have an action that I run after I have saved the original. And then  I watermark it and I save it to the LUF folder.

A Lightroom export preset puts my images in a LUF folder correctly sized, from where I upload them. Every now and then I empty the LUF folder.

I have similar, but slightly different export presets for Instagram, FB and my own website.

It's just not a problem in need of a solution AFAIC.

I live in New England not far from the coast and one of the things that really make me think of New England is lobster traps (and boats). This image was taken yesterday with my CL with a 35mm Summilux lens at f1.4, iso100, 1/1600sec.

I've been downloading from Flickr all along, because I only want to make one final copy of each picture that I save.  But I always take the default of "BBCode" on Flickr, which is the full saved size (I use 3000x2000 as a rule).  Your browser resizes that to fit the screen size or frame width in use.  But here is the 1600x1067 size version of a recent pic from Scotland, which probably generates a download of less than 500 KB:

 

 

do they download quickly enough? The second one seems to have lost some detail.  The first one looks OK to me.

My Flickr BBCode link is never larger than 800 pix long edge for landscape and 640 pix for portrait shots.

I’d say they look perfectly fine ...

Scott, 48 hours ago they were still in their mom's belly, had loads born in the field in the last 24 to 48 hours, rain stopped for a day and the Ewe's got busy.

This establishes the scale nicely.  In the first shot they just looked recently sheared.  In Scotland two weeks ago we saw relatively few lambs, but it hadn't occurred to me that they were waiting for better weather.  They only arrive in ones and twos, don't they?
