just like on social media like Facebook and Google Plus this 2 features can speed up the browsing experience of users and can let MAL allow more bigger file size restrictions on images like signatures and avatars

dynamic/lazy loading of images is when the images are only loaded when they are in to the view of users that the user have to scroll down before the bottom/other images will be loaded

Very good suggestions. atm, unless its on the lists, I can't see how they'd negatively impact anyone- unlike some of the recent and questionable changes

I hope dynamic loading is supposed to be optional too. Because personally I don't like seeing how the site loads more stuff as I scroll down. Makes it feel like a beatup car that is about to break completely.

I use to enter MAL with my mobile phone, and gifs sometimes make me impossible doing anything on the forum.

I hope moderators will read this thread.

B-but everyone should be able to enjoy my gifs. Baka.

Really though, sounds like this would benefit people with slow internet speeds.

Well, why not? Since it can be enabled/disabled.

Looking from the perspective of users with the slow internet pretty much tells me how they feel. Probably Boku No Pico buffered more than 50 times.

Like who would enjoy some mere Darkrai trembling with fear's Gif. Ba-Baka.

I love this idea.

I hate it when people include gifs in their sigs, it's wasting my internet quota when I'm not using my broadband. I don't hate people posting gifs in threads since most of them are funny. But I find them annoying if they're sizes are larger than 200 x 200 or longer than 7 seconds.
