Moving to the WCS board.

That's not very nice to say. Tolwyn is the one who does those things IIRC, and he is on vacation.

a) works for me
b) I did not post the highlight

Photobucket nerfs your image links if the daily bandwidth they generate exceeds a certain amount, so I'd imagine it only breaks if/when it hits that amount of traffic in a day. Doesn't help that whoever posted it is using an image that's waaaay bigger than it needs to be. :p

Yo, I was the fool that made the highlight. I use photobucket to host images and apparently they have a limited number of data per month they will allow you to link using a free account. The image highlight resolved itself because my bandwidth limit got reset, but the problem will come back again in mid to late may.
Tolwyn, I sent you a private message a week ago requesting an image re-host and got no reply. I didn't know you were on vacation so welcome back. If you re-host the image or send me a logo you would prefer to put up there, send me a private message and I'll be happy to replace the one I put up there. If anyone on HLP wants to host the image that's ok too. Any admin can modify highlights so if you want to just go ahead and do so without me that's also ok with me.
@Mongoose, yeah I cropped it without thinking. It looked ok so I just left it alone.

Well, here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_photo_sharing_websites) is a list of photo sharing sites on wikipedia with info. Take your pick.

Keep in mind that the bandwidth limit cuts all my photobucket hosted images. If no one acts on this within the week I am going to drop my hosted image on the WCS highlight, leaving a generic HLP community spotlight image to take its place.

There. Out of curiosity, how hard would it have been to use a smaller image and a different file format thus reducing a huge 500+kb image to mere 7kb?

Were you asking him or just asking in general?
How easy? Veeeery easy.
:P

You cut out the metadata?

Appreciated for setting things right Tolwyn.

Hey, look it's not hard at all. It's a single click using image software. It's more difficult to send someone a private message about it, but honestly, I didn't think it would take this long to get someone to re-host the image. Idle threats on the forums seem to get the job done quite handily though.

:doubt: Dude, he was on vaca.

Does anyone else think this thread becomes increasingly pointless? :D

I did. So I locked it.
