A reduced graphics option.

Is that possible? Losing the CC banner, avatars, substituting click able markers for images, rendering text in one typeface and font, etc. Thanks

Can't you set that in your browser?

 

[Markymark]

Can I? If so, would that be permanently or semi-permanently? Would it cross over to other devices on my account?

Yes it's for all browsing. Presumably it's to save bandwidth?

Yes, I was thinking mostly about reducing data usage when abroad. There is a side order of annoying magenta type as well.

If it's just abroad I'd switch off images for that period. Is it eu? If so I think mostly you pay per day rather than usage.

There are other ways to deal with that....

I use "Image-Show-Hide" in Firefox on desktop computers or just switch them off in the settings/preferences of mobile browsers. I only switch them on for a few threads, such as the bike gallery ones.

I know this isn't completely on-topic, but I thought any of you might find it useful:

There's a Firefox plugin I find quite useful, to temporarily disable annoying animated images:

Chrome has something similar: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/search/gif_jam?hl=en
