geWhat up with these flash based ima viewers on the web?

You know the ones I mean, even this forum uses it.

It seems that within the last few months, half of the sites on the internet use it.

Am I the only one that finds them really annoying?

What's wrong with a direct link to the picture, when you click on a thumbnail?

edit: yeah, the title is messed up.

Could a mod change it?

I am not sure what you mean...

Does this forum use Flash?

What do you want the title to be?

Ah. That is just scripting and css I think. I really didn't examine the code for it.

I don't like that feature usually, because of some scrolling issues I have. If I click on it, and it doesn't center vertically. If I scroll to see the image, it disappears. Other than that, I think it is a quicker way to view the image.
