Yeah, considering you have THAT avatar so...
Damn, I need to make some new avatars for me. |

| 60x60. 100x100 sucks, y'know. I'd side with it if you allowed linking. =^( | |||

| Yeah, why can't you link? That's silly. Linking= bandwidth you don't have to dispense. Unless I'm completely wrong. | |||

I'm hoping that allowing external links is high on your priority list, Xk.  Not being able to do that just.. bugs me. |

| 100x100 is sooo much better imo. I was just thinking about how great it would be if the size was bigger, and BAM there it was.(the announcement) Another pivotal step, XK. | |||

Originally posted by Danielle You guys really aren't making any logical sense. A GOOD reason that there's no external linking is that this ENSURES that people don't link to images that are the size of wallpapers even though they get resized. It bogs down the page loads, for one. Why would you NEED external linking? You don't even have to worry about shooting out your own bandwidth this way. |

| You know I did think about that as I posted it but that still doesn't really help when the use of wallpapers, pr0n, or files that don't even equate to images that waste bandwidth when loaded being used. I'm afraid you're not going to get both. Otherwise, it'd be pointless to have the on-site linker which is generally a lot better.
Sides, I doubt seriously that you have to worry about PHP images for avatars. At the very least, there are still people using PHP generated minipic (YD, Dani, for starters) and that in itself should probably be changed soon since that could easily be a wallpaper in a mini and waste a large load space. |

Of course, no one would actually give you one, but... |

| Insectduel says 100x100 is more fine. But my own is a 60x60. I should make more 60x60 avatars besides the first seven. | |||
Yoshi Dude TO HELL WITH THIS  Since: 11-17-05 From: Fleepa Last post: 6298 days Last view: 6297 days |
| ||
| I've softened up about the 100x100 avatars. Adblocking isn't that frequent, and some are even good to look at. I still prefer 60x60, but no biggie. *shrug* The boring memberlist still sucks though.
and wtf Hiryuu, there isn't a large image epidemic and you know it. Someone crosses the line every now and then, but hey, an admin can take care of it easily. wWhy not just ban all external image linking then? I could put a huge pic in my custom title, or layout, and apparently admins are helpless to stop me!! |

Danielle 6730 Administratorrrr HELLO THERE Since: 11-17-05 From: California Rate me ^_^ Last post: 6298 days Last view: 6297 days |
| ||
| So Hiryuu, you think we should not allow external linking for anything, which means no php images? You'd rather have that than just letting people link? Jesus christ, it isn't hard for an admin to remove it if someone posts an image that's too big. That's gotta be the laziest thing I've heard all day. | |||

| Man, removing external linking from the avatar field was a great choice, and really focuses on preventing large pictures. (edited by Cymoro on 01-30-06 06:42 PM) (edited by Cymoro on 01-30-06 06:44 PM) |

| ||
| Why are you guys making such a huge deal over it? Almost no one uses php-generated avatars, and the few that do can always ask someone to have it added (hint: edituser) | |||

Originally posted by HiryuuOriginally posted by Xkeeper I want to do my job, but not put effort into it. I know, let's have a feature that'll keep harmful or obtrusive things out that are caused by a minority, but will at the same time limit the majority of people that want to go on their normal business. That way, I don't have to bother going to edituser.php and take anything out. What a nice job. |

| I still don't understand why all of you are bitching. the only thing you lost is the ability to use image scripts.
how many of you actually used them? let me check. ... about 5. ouch. amazingly, almost none of the ones bitching about this used them. |

also, you might as well get used to it, as whenever board2's done you'll be subject to the same damn thing:

| You can't somehow combine the two? Is it impossible to make a choice to choose from an uploaded one or an offlinked one? I would imagine it's not that hard. | |||

Originally posted by Cymoro This is the greatest post ever. Cymoro=win.

Having to edit some users' profiles with something SO DAMN SIMPLE. |
