Forum:Reached my breaking point

TDM: Okay, now that you kinda understand, let me make it clear. When he said "not as many", he meant, "instead of, , and , you would just have: . Oh, and I'll need to printscreen all of my talk bubble images so I have the right sizes before I can Photobucket them.   22:32, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

Yes. 01:24, February 4, 2011 (UTC)

Maybe it would be a good idea to allot a certain amount of user images per user. These could be anything from talk bubble images to an archive image, to sig images. Limit of 7, maybe? 08:42, 19 February 2011 (EST)
 * I've never seen an archive image uploaded to the wiki, and most sig images are actual images in the wiki with purpose, for example mine. The only counter-example to this I can think of is JFH's sig. -- 09:14, 19 February 2011 (EST)

Exactly. I tried (and have seen others try) to upload them. However, they were quickly deleted Which, admittedly, made me really angry, wondering why the admins were deleting images that could actually be used when there were over 1000 files marked for deletion, completely unused. -_- . And Crono, before this sig, you had (or maybe you still do, I don't know) a randomized set of Claymore image sigs. You didn't upload those, as they would have been user images, with no mainspace purpose, and then someone would have deleted them. 18:02, 19 February 2011 (EST)
 * Yeah, I know. I didn't upload them, they were on my Photobucket. Why are you saying this, it has nothing to do with anything.. In fact, it reinforces the point of this forum; to keep user-only images on Photobucket. ._. -- 20:14, 19 February 2011 (EST).

Well then if this were to be the case, it would effect me alot, due to 80% of my talk bubble images are fanmade...I'll be ok with the new policy, the only question I have is: "How does one host image from Photobucket and other sites?" o.O UnknownChaser 21:58, 19 February 2011 (EST)

Well, that one's simple enough. Go to Photobucket, create an account, upload the image to your account, then put the link into any wiki page, and it should appear. There are many examples you can see just around this wiki. -- 22:08, 19 February 2011 (EST)

@Crono- actually, it reinforces my point. If a user is going to us an image a hundred times over, especially one that amounts to only a few hundred bytes, there is no reason why it should be forced to be be hosted somewhere where size manipulation in bytes and link giving, or just general viewing are handicapped. Also, maybe I have a different definition of "wiki purpose", but VSymbol links to no mainspace or article use template pages. 13:44, 20 February 2011 (EST)
