I really think you should go back to the beginning of the thread about
resolution, and read it again. What you will see is John reacting
perfectly reasonably to a few initially friendly comments about the
size of the photos he posted. He explained that it was a quick & dirty
gallery, and explained why he didn't want to make the pictures
smaller. Later he also explained that if he was putting up a more
professional gallery he would include smaller overview-type pictures
linking to the larger ones. 

What you will also see is that people started to include increasingly
sarcastic unprovoked and snippy personal comments and nasty little
insults intended to goad him. When that was successful people
immediately launched into full scale bullying and criticism of him. 

If people hadn't started to snipe at him the thread would have petered
out like any other. But this list has developed a nasty little habit
of picking on John at every little opportunity. It's ugly and it's
time it stopped.
