Adding Images to the Forum

Post by Dragosvr92 »

Well i was going to put this on the rules page, but id better just make a post for it.

As This is more like a suggestion than a Rule. But i would like to Advise you, to use the Attachment Option, When posting images, and not to HOTLink images from some other site.

I Am asking this Because :
  1. it is using the bandwidth of the site you are linking the image from, maybe without the site's owner permission.
  2. it is more simple for you to add images to your posts.
  3. by hosting the image ourselfs, we are making sure that the images will be avaible for as long as the site is up and running. And we wont get broken images all around old posts.
  4. You may view the images in the Lightbox Viewer, which is more faster to see all images on the page. Instead of Viewing them one by one, in a new tab.
Well, now the disadvantage is that it is using some bandwidth and Disk space, but thats not important, as its not using too much.
