How to Turn Off Images Using Opera

The Opera browser has become popular due to its fast rendering engine, large feature set and wide availability. It's gained a dedicated following on Windows and Mac desktop platforms, and Opera Mini has now been released for both iPhone and Android mobile operating systems. If you'd like to speed up your browsing or save on bandwidth, one easy step to take is to disable image rendering. While this will make your browsing experience somewhat plain, most sites like Google or eHow will still function.
