Image Border Polls

No border!
If you want a border just use the bbc for it. :'(


I loved having plain images fit in with the background color of a sheet before when Ace was around. If you had transparency in the image, it would look really pretty.


The smaller won't make me satisfied at all, it's the same effect as the bigger, just less pronounced...

Agreed.


Personally, if I want a border I'll add it. Nothing bugs me more than having a specific look in mind, doing the transparency, then remembering that "oh, there's no way to remove the giant grey box from around this without coloring the entire post background AND the picture".


If there was a way to upload the image with transparency intact, I'd be all for it, but reading the thread it seems like an 'all or nothing' on some sort of border.


I just want to make fancy, backgroundless headers for things and not have them ruined by a bounding box. ; - ;

Problem I have with a thinner border is... Transparent images still won't appear transparent >_< Buuuuut... I love the option to vote

think of how much nicer the Newsletter would look with no more border....

I like my borders...

 

[Elle Joyner]

Think of the CHILDREN! >_>


Or...something.

The borders could be a bit thinner but there's no problem with them imo. Oh well.

 

[Elle Joyner]

See.. Here's my legitimate argument - and the reason I'm anti-border...


Borders can be VERY easily added. Most image hosting sites let you do it, in fact - so you don't even need editing software. Whereas removing a border is much more difficult - particularly if there's NO option to do so...

 

[Meredith]

I'm not much for aesthetics, myself. It's just... I want my posts to be simple and the box makes me feel like it's gotta be fancy. xD

 

[welian]

A border - not the same border, mind you, but a border can be fudged with BBCode. You can't UNfudge a border.

I guess so. Having the opition to change the borders would be best as opposed to changing the whole thing.

 

[Elle Joyner]

Unfortunately, DWiz said that wasn't possible, at this time -- so my thoughts are... it's better to start out with nothing and add to it, then start out with something that can't be changed or altered at all. And by DANGIT - I am a BBcode warrior! I have a BBcode Shoppe on the site... I will MAKE people border-ized pictures if they want xD

If the code is simple then it should be avaliable on the bb code list or put into the reply section if the borders are removed. Since i'm horrible at bb codes xD .

 

[Elle Joyner]

BBcode for borders is on the list

That's good then. I still think thin borders is the proper middle ground, but I respect your opinion.

 

[Hippopotamus]

I think she's trying to say that it's better to have the option to make your own border or leave it blank, rather than having a border that you can't get rid of, smaller or not. isntevenami


borders killed those kitties there, they would've looked pretty

Yeah, I understand that. It's just my preference to make it thinner lol.


 
I'm not sure if you have the same type of border either. If you use BB code can you change it to look like the normal one?


If not then you would be stuck with no border for images.

 

[Hippopotamus]

Yeah, since there are options to change the color and size. I believe you could also put a fill and then a border over it, or maybe just two borders alltogether. Prolly the latter.

 

[The Pooka]

Bein' able t' use transparent images without them silly borders would be just luverly-duverly.

 

[The Dark Wizard]

I'm going to close this poll at midnight my time. It is currently 10:22 pm.

 

[Kiyoko Tomoe]

The votes changed so quickly... Thinner border was far ahead and then suddenly, no border took first... ;~;

 

[welian]

That image border needs to gooooo....

 

[Aristos Fortuna]

Yes, it simply makes too much sense to have no border if you can always add a border.


So I voted no border (bag)-(*U*)-(gun)

 

[Hux]

What's the code for that then?

 

[Ozmic]

What's the code for that then?

If you look on the BBcode guide under borders, there are links that list styles and color choices you can pick for the border code.

Okay, are you sure it's possible to still add the same border if it's removed?

[QUOTE="Mr. Grin]If you look on the BBcode guide under borders, there are links that list styles and color choices you can pick for the border code.

[/QUOTE]
I know, I looked up the guide for it. However, does it work for images and is it the same border before? If not then it's not just "you can add the border"
