If you've tried browsing the Worms maps uploaded to the site lately, you'll probably know how slow it is. The reason is that with big maps, a lot of them are megabytes in size, but they're being used as their own preview, therefore rape.
Needs fixing!

reason I changed it was because it was causing a lot of server load to process the images on every page. Unfortunately with big maps it's transferred the load over to the bandwidth side somewhat. Only fix I think would be to generate previews for maps on upload.. hmm.

It's maybe a little bit too late to answer on that post (the most recent XD) but can you, admins, make the previews looks on a fix size (like each preview is 480 x 174 pixels instead of 1920 x 696 pixels). It should be more faster?
