Guys... I was just thinking that when you quote something, esp. when you're quoting a picture. Should we just leave the link instead of showing the whole picture again. I mean it slows down the server and the bandwidth >< I think some pictures that won't show are all thanks to bandwidth problem. At least I think imageshack and other image hosters are ok. However, if you are direct linking from your website, it'll bring down the bandwidth. Trust me, this happens lots of time.

I believe that it would be better not to quote at all, unless the picture was posted early before another picture came in. This is done in other boards, just so you know. That way, bandwidth is saved. But if you HAVE to quote, leaving a link is probably good. Besides, there's always a link to the post above the quotation.
And that's why everyone should start using the image hosters...

Yup, I agree. Trying to read a page with loads of quotes of graphics kills my connection as well x.x And if the picture is quite big, I think the poster should just provide a link to it.

that was also mentioned. Should it be added as a new rule? I can do it right now...

Yes, do that. I'm afraid I'm not that good in writing a rule -_-;;
