Google Image search, second or third page for Revan. It was part of a fan-made wallpaper.

I believe the plural form of that would be Racist Donkey-Raping Sons of a Whore (or Sons of Whores, depending on your preference). Point being, more than one 'son.'

Does quoting pictures waste bandwidth? Surely the pictures are only downloaded once, and every use of them refers to the same already-downloaded picture. At least, they're only downloaded once for the same page. And most photo hosts have cache settings set up so that the pictures will be cached on your computer on multiple pages as well. Quoting pictures wastes screen space, but it shouldn't dramatically increase bandwidth used.

Is there something I'm not getting?

Mostly as rule we made up because it can cause problems and for some users the extra time to load all the images can get laggy.

Same reason we prefer people inlining huge images.

Fixed.

Also, I fixed Strategic Defense Instatute to spell AdmiralKanos correctly.

EDIT: Maybe I'll remove banding from the final version...

I went through part of this thread and deleted about six or seven quoted pictures with comments like, "Cool, thanks!" under them. It serves no purpose to slow down the loading time for other users simply because the person saying thanks is too lazy to take two seconds to adjust the quote.

Plus, if people keep quoting it, as the rules state, it'll screw up the formatting of the thread.
Enlightenment, in [url=http://bbs.stardestroyer.net/viewtopic.php?t=10681]AMP Forum Rules[/url], wrote:When posting into this forum, please be follow these guidelines.

Do not quote inline images. It serves no purpose and can widen the thread as each quote is indented.
Keep the links in the quote (as links) if you want, or snip them, but don't leave them as quoted images.

No, there's actual duplicates, such as the two Fundamentalist Moron cards (the protesters and the bunny) that are both there twice. Since they only load once, though, it doesn't really hurt anything.

I don't suppose someone could make one up for me, to satisfy my curiosity?

Or am I still yet too obscure a member? :wink:

Not sure what all I could add to help with the creation of the stats but as for a quote; how about, "Is your name Terry?"

Sorry, I didn't notice that. I thought he was referring to my Spanky card Vs. Noble's (Or wyrm's) Spanky Card. My bad entirely.

Lets try to keep the commentary in the other thread and keep this one nice and clean for cards only, like the member pic thread. Can a mod move these comments to the other thread? :angelic:
