The room description is 100 bytes of information, the tag refers
to an image which is probably at least 20K of information and
maybe a lot more than that.

Graphical MUDs are going to need a whole lot of bandwidth, or a
design that really, really minimizes the number of images that
have to be downloaded, and probably both. I think the hardware
to handle that will be beyond the casual user (ie, me). This
is something that will probably have to be done in the
commercial realm.
