  2. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    Hotlinking isn't 100% safe,it's no problem to hide malware or viruses in a hotlinked pic as well.

    You can hotlink a cover pic with one of the approved imagehosts that allow hotlinking,read the rules thread.

    If you want to post galleries you have to post thumbnailed pics.

    x.warnet is not allowed here.

    When you join a new community you do not own that community. Learn its rules and play by them. If you don't like them go elsewhere or start your own community.
