A Guide on how to post Pics on the Zone

Sorry to **** on the fireworks but isn't this considered "hotlinking" and frowned upon?

Hotlinking uses other peoples bandwith and they dont like it.

Forums that allow it can find themselves in trouble.

Not to mention the person you are linking from can change the picture to something obscene and get you in trouble that way.

Not a clue what Hotlinking is but as longs as the Mods are happy that people can post pictures then i will continue to do so.

Maybe PM a mod to ask the question??
 
AS there is nothing wrong with posting pictures.

The method you are promoting is the problem.

You maybe want to re-write your helpful guide explaining how to post pictures using a free hosting site such as imageshack.

Google hotlinking and you will see why its important.

Probably best to "soft " delete just until the techies sort this out, we would hate to promote any possible problems. As I don't have a clue I will err on the side of safety for now so apologies to all concerned.
I am a wee bit cofused.....is copying the location address the wrong way to do it?
 
I can't see how this "hot linking" is a problem. We've all done it for literally millions of posts (Mallet's Mallet must have 1000's!) and no one moaned!
