Of course it does. It is very image heavy so it gets taken over due to the possibility of excessive strain.

Well, to be fair, it's an image thread. If it wasn't full of images, it would be boring. If it was only 6 images per page, it would be a pain to navigate. It could do with being only 2-3 images per post though, as a compromise.

The thread is the result a lot of time and effort invested on the part of Aurum KodEXo. He's one of the only people that bothers to post in the forum, so discouraging him is probably not the best idea

I see your point about image spam, but I think the people who visit his thread are prepared for the fact that there will be a lot of images
