Hey, hey, hey hey heyheyheyHEY. This an image thread. Easy on the makin' us read, mmk?
kidding.
And as for the quote - ...looking for a NICE HAT in Touhou?
Well, okay, I guess. Why not?
As for the rule - I personally think that should be reserved for discussion threads, and in full-blown image threads it should be suspended or done on a personal preferance basis.
Yeah, it's a bit overwhelming having a huge image creep up off the bottom of your screen as you scroll through the thread, but you kind of expect that sort of thing in an image thread.
I posit that we should nullify this rule and make it a guideline for non image-intensive threads - i.e., in a discussion on gameplay mechanics and techniques, a screenshot would be thumbnailed. In an art thread of picture thread such as this, ... well, really? Do we honestly need to be afraid of filling someones screen with an image in an image thread?
And one last thing to consider, too - I'm saying this while browsing from a
laptop. I have possibly the tiniest screen here, and I'm okay with image-flood.
Please take it into consideration.
