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. --{{User:Neumannz/SigTemplate}} 22:08, 19 February 2011 (EST) | Well, that one's simple enough.

@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. {{The Inexistentsig}} 13:44, 20 February 2011 (EST) | |||
{{ShardofTruth|time=19:54, 6 March 2011 (EST)|talk=Since the decision is final now I have three concerns: | |||
*I, and most likely 90% of the users use Xiggies Talk Template as the basis for our own template. It's currently impossible to change the image adress that easily, because it's heavily coded in wiki style. Can someone with template super skills make a version, where linking an image from an external source is easy? | |||
*If only one template is allowed now, what about the mutiple templates that were used in the past? It would be an huge amount of work to replace every coding on every page, someone has ever written on. | |||
*Is it really necessary to delete all CoM and 358/2 Days talk sprites? I think most of them are official material, so why shouldn't they be hosted here? }} | |||
{{Asif|sho=To answer your questions, | |||
#If you use Xiggie's Talk Template 2, you can simply add the url of the Photobucket image into the template in lieu of the file name, and it will work. Just add the number "2" next to "User:Xiggie/TalkTemplate", making it "User:Xiggie/TalkTemplate2". | |||
#We're just going to have to compile them somehow. Yes, it will be a lot of work, but I don't know how it would be done. You'd need to ask another admin about that. | |||
#Although they are official, the CoM and 358/2 Days talk sprites were edited so that the red bars at the bottom of each image were removed, making them non-official. Therefore, they are no longer allowed on the wiki. | |||
I hope that clears everything up.}} | |||
{{ShardofTruth|time=06:44, 7 March 2011 (EST)|talk=Thanks for the answers, TalkTemplate2 works like a charm. | |||
About the mugshots: The ones from CoM don't have a red bar (as you can see [http://www.spriters-resource.com/gameboy_advance/khcom/index.html here] on many examples) and the redbarless 358/2 Days mugshots are just cutted versions of the original ripped images, nothing was replaced or altered. | |||
I know that their sole purpose here is for the talk templates (and some galleries), having 10 for every character also invites to do sad, mad and glad template, which defeates the purpose now. Maybe we should pick out the good ones and leave the bad ones for the crop.}} | |||
