However, this thread will load faster if the h/w numbers are included as it will allow the browser to pre-allocate that much space for the image within a reply.

Okay, thanks! That's what I meant, but stated it wrongly.

Am I correct that just giving one dimension will slow down the browser (however slightly) as it tries to determine the space allocation? Probably not noticeably in most instances.

I don't know.

It probably isn't that big of a deal anymore unless you have FR set to download 250 replies per thread.

Remember back in the day when you had to download the whole thread every time??? That was when people complained about this the most.
