Toplist update

[Fridder]

This thread has to do with the toplist update. I love it, but there is a problem. The problem is the picture part, where I have to upload pictures off my computer. It doesn't work too well. Not to mention you can't upload anything over 500kb. I have all my server's pictures on my dropbox and some on photobucket. I tried uploading a 430kb picture off my dropbox, but it gave me an error. The file is a png and again it is 430kb and I somehow got an error. Could you change the image uploading section to a image link section? That way I can just enter the URL of the image in a text box instead of uploading it off my computer. Just like before. This could also help decrease the amount of bandwidth used on this site. Thank you :)

I'll look into it. I'm planning on increasing the maximum file size a little too, haven't heard of this before though.

The reason I don't want linking the images to other sites was because the links expired or were removed. Previously, I displayed 3 servers on the homepage with one of their images. Tinypic and imageshack removed the images because they were getting too much hits, ending up on free Tinypic ads on the homepage. I'm planning on doing such things again, meaning I prefer having the images locally. Bandwidth is not a problem

Can't you just have the server download and store the remote image and display it? That way they can still add links to the image.
