When images that are larger than 300 px wide (such as the max at 350), they are resized to 300 px on discussion threads. This a problem on Image Pickin', where the smaller images do not appear as how they will look on the wiki. This should be corrected so that images are not resized.

I don't know what happened during the software conversion, but it undid whatever had been done to make pics appear at their proper resolutions. I can't see what practical purpose this is supposed to achieve...in IP it's a nuisance because it can hinder legibility of images with small text and having to take the extra step of using the View Image function (or whatever the IE/Chrome equivalents are) is an unneeded extra step.

Yes please. I could live with this in any other TVTropes subforum, but this is really annoying in Image Pickin' - kind of detrimental to the discussions as a whole, since you can't easily gauge how large an image and its paired caption would be if the image is >300px wide.

Going to support that idea - it makes little sense to make images look different in the fora than the wiki, especially for Image Pickin' purposes.
