Can we get a @media query or something to make theads actually readable when someone posts a relatively gigantic image? Something like max-width: 75% would help a lot.

The image should fit to the page in these circumstances in my experience. Occasionally a drop in my mobile network speed will mess up the way the page loads and the image will be massive. I always found this could be fixed by reloading the page. Could that be the issue?

Yes, on page load, a bit of javascript will resize the max size of all images to be width of browser in pixels minus the width of the forum user info column (avatar pics, borders, etc). This can get a bit funky on mobile devices but a refresh should make it work if it glitches out.

As you say though - I have noticed it getting a bit worse on mobile devices lately. Since you mentioned @media queries already, can you save me a bit of searching - do you know if javascript is returning a larger value for browser resolution when it perceives the page as needing to be larger? I'd be happy to add the @media query if it would help add some consistency between desktop and mobile without negatively impacting things in other ways.
