When you upload a picture to the Gallery, it uploads five different files: original, large, medium, small and thumbnail. Isn't it just a waste of resources? Shouldn't original and thumb be enough?

I was just thinking the same thing, i remember when i was on shared hosting I was limited to 50,000 files, at 5 images per gallery image that will eat away quick at those with limited resources allowed to be used on their hosting plan.

now im still trying to figure out how to find the image path of an gallery image so I can link the image pages database.
