This file format means all other images in it were included, such as avatars, signatures, and that nepeta thing kC posted. To summarize:
kC's gif = 52 megabytes.
Rest of the page = 2 megabytes.
As for what Coro said, I believe the limit being 2 to 5 megabytes is perfectly debatable, but anything over that is already too much. In whichever case, I will abide by Ehks' decision.
I just feel that 5 mb for an image should be the highest limit for any image. anything above 30 MB is insane and if any image would be over that size should be reconsidered in being posted. embeded videos should be fine as you need to activate the plug in to start sending you the data of the video.
as for the sizes posted above kinda shows just how much of a point of how insane that gif really was for bandwidth
