Chitalian8 Say... — Only by allowing strangers in can we find new ways to be ourselves. Life's little crossroads are often as simple as the pull of a trigger. — 11:55, 13 March 2011 (EDT) We have quite a few userbox images that are fanart, for example: this one and this one. Shouldn't these be hosted externally?

Erry - Deep Drive TALK - Moon shine down. ~ 11:58, 13 March 2011 (EDT) YES.

The Inexistent - All the world's a puzzle, and I the one who made it so... TALK - EVIL has come... at last... But, in all techincallity, those could be considered site images. Plus, there are hundreds of them that would have to be exactly resized before they could be uploaded through Photobucket.

AS IF! The world is garbage! CRUNCH! If they are "user friend" userboxes ("This user is friends with _______"), then the rules that apply to talkbubble images would apply to those. The other images are debatable, though, but for consistency's sake I still think they should be kept off-wiki. And if you want to resize an image, Photoshop is great for that. (TI, I know you can't do that, so you might want to have someone else do it for you). I don't know if you can resize an image in Paint, but in Photoshop it is definitely possible.

The Inexistent - Pitiful users, mindlessly collecting information. The rage of an edit releases this knowledge, and they all come together, to form: The Wiki!!! TALK - And on the Wiki these words appear: "My name is The_Inexistent, user of users: Look upon my edits, ye Mighty, and despair!" Well, resizing in Paint makes images extremely pixalated, but any windows user can easily take a printscreen of the existing size and crop it, or paste it into word and resize it. I just thought that it would be a lot of work for images that, if you ask me, are site images.
