I think it is an excellent idea as it will save us flitting from one page or tab to the next, this way we can see it all at a glance. But, yes, it will work when done in moderation, the real test will be when the first "ramp" of the winter season kicks in.

This is a great idea, having to click links all the time and be pinged away from two was annoying.


Plus it's easier to learn off others also when you can see the chart and learn what they are talking about.

A welcome step but presumably you'd like restraint on quoting and re-quoting posts with charts in? Not just any question of bandwidth but such re-quoting fills up the page so much that a review of the last 24 hours' posts becomes tedious.

Yes, hence by point about being sensible with it. We have a couple of donuts I can think of who will overuse quoting on this, but we'll just delete those strings, or the charts within them and post a reminder


It should be fine on the whole.

I know I'm in a minority of one over this, but I find embedded charts too small to analyse and understand. By the time I've zoomed, unzoomed and rezoomed to find a comfortable size, I've found I'm pining for the good old days of simply clicking on a link. And then there's the faff of returning to the default page size in order to read the next post.

Providing a link as well as an embedded picture would keep me happy, but, as I said, I realize it's probably just me with this problem.

Well, two or three times a decade it does, anyway.

Appreciate it might not be quite as smooth on a computer. Do people still use computers?
