My name is Mal not Jeremy :)
Edit My Images
Yes
When looking through the photo critique and sharing section it can take some time to catch up due to the number of postings from the increased membership.
I much prefer to have the images spring to my eyes immediately on clicking on that thread especially if it is a series of images, makes comparing much easier and instant. Unless it is something I really want to view I just go on to the next thread rather than navigate any further to see the pics.
Is there a technical reason for some images to be posted via a Flikr link, or is it just about the poster saving time uploading to the forum.

How do others feel ?
 
Well I post up the medium image (500 pixels) wide with a link to the larger version.

I suspect others just post up the link to the larger image. I agree that it is time consuming to see all the pics in a thread like this.
 
Must admit that I am less likely to look at the pics if they are links, especially when there are 9 or 10 of them. Suppose it's a little unfair but I think, in general, people don't like to have to click on links, then close a window and click on the next link. Also can be a bit of a pain if you're reading replies and constantly have to reclick on links in order to equate the comments/critique.

All IMHO of course! ;)
 
I prefer people to put the images IN the post instead, makes it much easier :)
 
ditto.

I dont click links to images unless it's to view a larger one, or on a rare occassion if it's been getting rave reviews I click to see what all the fuss is about.
 
I don`t click links either.
 
If its a link to a bigger version of an image thats already there, then that's perfectly fine IMO
