Just to clarify my position, I didn't intend that to mean that I think anyone on this forum used to or would post like that. Going back and reading it I may have chosen a poor wording.

In any case I've frequented some forums where it's almost impossible to read a lot of threads because of ridiculously huge attachments.

On the other hand, at least here we get thumbnails. The guitar forum I frequent doesn't even do that, and that's a real drag.

P.S. Xara should use their coding prowess to make a command line version of Xara that can render thumbnails, so that when people attach .xar files they'd be visible.
