Very wide image

The extended body of this post includes an 800px wide image. Some users happily include large images in their posts, and as designers we have to work out how best to deal with this, do we ignore it and let the image dominate our design or do we find some way of preventing the image from breaking our design. What is more important, consistent design or user privilege?

If you do decide to deal with large images within your theme, the two most common visual styles are to set the overflow property on .serendipity_entry_body and .serendipity_entry_extended to either 'overflow:hidden;' or overflow:auto;

Setting to hidden will crop the image to the width of the entry, while auto will allow scroll bars, but doesn't work in IE unless you also add a 'width:100%;' to the above styles.
