Since you mentioned the speed and the Cloud transition. I did wanted to mention that images on individual brags were loading slowly.
Now I got an idea. i think we need an applet which presents the user with a preview of the image which is generated on the fly or a compressed version of his picture. You know how some pictures take 3MB if we allow that it will be too much (in my opinion), that is why we need this type of applet which compresses the image to an ideal ratio quality / file size/ resolution size. (resolution can be manually changed by the admins based on new standards, shouldn't be hard coded.)
