Hard as it is to believe for those that have nice, speedy Internet connections, there are still many people on dial-up. Additionally, more and more people are accessing sites with smaller devices. For these people, large images included in posts makes for a very unpleasant experience.
Fortunately, we can please everyone here. If you find yourself in one of the above categories, or if you just prefer things to be as quick as possible here, you can do the following:
User Control Panel
--> Board Preferences
--> Edit display options
--> Display images within posts --> No
What this will do: You'll never see an image in a post again, and even 28.8 dial-up should be pretty quick. And, you won't miss out on anything you might want to see - images will be replaced with a link, and if you click on the link, the image will appear.
In fact, for the absolute speediest dial-up options - you can also disable the four options after "Display images within posts" as well, which will disable other displayed items that can be bandwidth hogs.
