I would strongly argue that the by far most important thing is how the receiver interpreted the actions, though. Of course expanding on the actions themselves might help others understand better, but as far as I can understand, being met with scepticism for what you describe is part of what makes the experience so hopeless after bringing the courage to follow up on something uncomfortable.

I work at Hemnet, a Swedish real estate site, where we currently have about 300 000 - 400 000 new images each week. We recently investigated the on-demand approach but found that JPEG decompression was the biggest time consumer in our use case of scaling fairly large images down to sizes appropriate for web and mobile. This made us decide to do scaling in advance to all our sizes which resulted in overall CPU time savings.

It would be interesting to hear how img.ix solves this, since you are arguing for the resources savings in the on demand approach.
