If you were right, any pic, even say a 800x700 one that linked to

You are not right and it isn't. It is a ridiculous, careless and
clumsy way of thinking and using words. It is bad enough that we
all do it in the heat of writing, especially to ngs. But you
choose to make it a practice, even when you have time to think
about it.
