I think it might be a better system if users could include over 5 images in their post, if everything beyond five were put under spoilers.
 
you can already post six images at a time. This would be a good idea, but would probably be abused if there's no limit, so maybe the limit should be 6 normal, +4 spoilers or something like that?
 
It just becomes a bit annoying at times...

Isn't a maximum image limit better than a double post?
 
I can see it being an issue in the trade shop forum where users would want to post sprites for pokemon instead of creating a giant wall of text.
 
Believe it or not, we have a lot of legacy image policies because a small but significant portion of our userbase is on dial-up or otherwise really slow connections and we don't want to bomb them out.
 
But dialup people can just turn off autoload and load manually if they want to see.

Unless images are loaded behind spoilers?
 
Well, can't people just choose to not display images in posts in their User CP? I know on all the other vBulletin Forums you can...

When making a thread showing one artist artwork, if they have more than six images they want to show (this happened to be me before), they must double post them and- ZING. They get an infraction.


Image limit = just plain impractical. Sorry man.

People still use Dial-Up? Wow. That's shocking.

I use it.
 
Why do you need to post more than six images? Post six, wait for a response, post more.
 
People can't include sprites for their trade shop pokemon when they have more than 6 pokemon, which I haven't seen one yet that doesn't.

And apparently if you make your thread several posts, you get infracted. It's a lose/lose deal here.

And, there's no real reason we can't have more than 6 images in a post, 6 images won't increase the load time any more than say 20. Yes, I realize it actually would, but not by that much, and if you are thinking about those members using dial ups, think about us members that are on the other side of things as well.
 
Then you can't put a sprite with each Pokemon on your trade thread. Like for example:

[SPRITE]
Pokemon
IVs
EVs
Moves

And then continue on with that pattern, or whatever format, for each Pokemon. It makes the trade forum so much more enjoyable instead of looking at a big wall of text.
