I agree a size limit on images would be a good thing, but a file size rather than a resolution size limit would seem to make more sense.
I don't suppose there is anyway to monitor if external sites are hotlinking to images?
The popular images could be a significant problem, I get the feeling some users don't save images but instead come back to view them over and over. Has anyone considerd taking popular images and moving them into a members/gold gallery? Non-members could see a random few each day (like the random picture box). People who post variations of images already up (before and after etc) could be encouraged to upload them elsewhere and link to them in an art thread instead.


i think that this would be a good idea, as it would foster a bit more community, while lessening bandwith. i would suggest that only random pics would visible to non-members, and raise the member age limit(do those things even work?)

the only problem with these things...is well, they are a bit restrictive to those who just want superhero ideas or who aren't old enough...and while things like this are always started with good intentions, they have a habit of spiraling out of control.

about the little things like the hp readouts; i really thought it was a neat idea, but i can see that it doesn't really serve a true purpose. perhaps if it was indicitive of post count or something...i dunno, i just liked the hp thing.
