New image attachment views

I strongly dislike the new way image attacments are displayed. Attachments used to open in a new window very quickly and you were able to open multiples at once. Now with this new viewing program they dont open in a new window automatically, AND they take a considerably more time to load. I dont like it. I know how stubborn the admins are so it probably wont be changed, but as a member of this board i have every right to voice my opinion.

The attachment function is a global function. It cannot be set per user or per user group.

I personally not against changing it, but I know that regardless, it won't please everyone because there is no choice here. All users have to deal with one or the other. You are the first to have complained about it, sans for one person who did because they didn't know you could click on the image to view the full-size version.

I don't like it either for all the reasons stated above. Was just easier before.

Re: New image attachment views

Found a way around the slow viewing and multiple viewing. Double click the image in the thread, rather than just click once. It will open it into new window/tab (depending on what browser) and they load very very quick, if not quicker than before. So new image viewing is no longer a problem.
