BEFORE YOU POST : EVERYONE, Please Read and Respond!

Okay, there seems to be a lot of rule breaking as of late. I'm not sure if people see the word "RULES" and decide not read the thread but apparently something isn't working here.

SO, think of this as your official warning. I know for a fact that Craww and I are sick and tired of editing handfuls of posts each. and. every. day. It's frustrating and really, most of you have been posting here long enough to know that you:

1. DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, quote pictures. Why? Well, think of those people out there with dialup modem connections who have to sit and wait 10 mins for a graphics rich page to load. That kinda sucks. Now, think of having to wait additional minutes for the same page to load because you have people quoting graphics that have already been posted. It's annoying folks. Stop doing it.

2. DO NOT post images larger than 640 pixels in width. If your screen resolution is set at 800x600 and someone posts a picture of the same size, you're faced with the annoying task of scrolling right to see the full image. It's retarded. MAKE THUMBNAILS. It's not that hard. If you can create wallpapers, you can create thumbnails to go along with it.

Two rules people. We're not asking you to obey 10275239572957 of 'em. It's common curteousy we're asking for here. That's it. If you can't follow them, don't post.

One more thing, after you have read this post, PLEASE respond and let us know that you have read and understood.

The 1 millionth poster who replies gets a prize.

If you upload pictures at uploadimages.net they give you both your image and a thumbnail. Plus the whole code that you just need to copy and paste into the reply box.

I have dial-up and hate image-quoting, so I have definitely read and understood the post. I hope everyone else does.

Thank you for the heads up. It's amazing how easy some of these image hosting sites make it yet people still don't do the right thing. Weird.
