You can't add the exact some border with BBCode. You can, however, add something similar.

So the old bolder would be unavaliable if you removed the border which was designed for photos.CloudyBlueDay said:
Also in the example the guide provided text was only used not a picture. The code isn't for pictures specifically. The border was.

The current image border is completely unrelated to BBCode. It is a product of CSS, the site's style sheet. It's not something that can be toggled by users, it is a declaration in a global document that Wizard must change and reupload to the server.

Right that was my point. The BB code doesn't substitute for the old border meaning users won't be able use it anymore if it's removed.welian said:
There was no using it though. It just existed.Hux said:
I removed for making it thinner but Removing it is winning, I can understand the need for transparent images and stuff.

The vote was on weither to keep it, change it or remove it. Sure users weren't using the border since it was just there. But users who want to keep or change the old border would not be able to if the border is removed. BB code won't place the same border onto photos, while the old borders were meant to handle pictures.

I think I may have the solution to our problems, but... I have to test it first.
Understandable but its an all or nothing situation unfortunately.Hux said:
Thats why we left it to a poll to see how the site feels in general.

That comment of mine I render invalid until my attempted solution is proven wrong, though I hope it's proven right. At least, the wanted thin in the lead part.

That's unfortunate for quite a few users. But alright.

Theres just no way to currently make it optional, its a little piece of coding in backend that i can remove or keep added. CSS is all or nothing unfortunately.Hux said:

Yeah but people the people who want to keep or change the border outnumber the people who want to remove it. So removing it actually affects more people.
Keep it = 49
Change = 74
Remove = 84
49 + 74 = 123
123 > 84

Will only make me regret making polls public in the future. Ultimately the final decision comes down to me and I haven't truly decided yet.

I apologize if I was sounding crass as it was not my intention.
Personally, I enjoy the functionality of a public poll and wouldn't like to be part of the deciding factor in seeing it go.
I'll bow out and let the polls and Dwiz decide.

Its really pretty. Image Borders are really pretty.Hux said:
But there are a bunch of mechanical reasons why people want it gone and I can see that. Transparent images being the primary example. If you have an image with a transparent background, the border will still awkwardly exist because CSS magic. I've seen it somewhat mess with other existing site BBcode, but I may be able to tweak that.
I personally am a fan of making all the pictures look like little portraits.

It didn't seem rude (To me that is) and I personally don't think there is anything to be sorry about, you were just wanting to prove something. That's a good skill to have! You had your facts and things to back up your side. In the end, a decision will be made and maybe we won't like it, maybe we will, though we just have to wait and see what the outcome is.Hux said:

Hey guys!
(: I know this seems absolutely terrible for some, but I'd be happy to throw out a quick "border BBCode" tutorial if/when the image border is removed. There are many very easy ways to replicate the effect. We wanted to do a vote because it's a great way to include the community instead of just having the staff make all the choices. I'm sure disappointed when the side I vote for doesn't win, I still think it's better to have a voice than not at all, right? ^__^

I was actually questioning whether there was an option to remove the borders the other day. Had a nice, stream-lined CS all set up, and the only thing out of place was the fact that the border messed with the spacing and made it look blocky. Therefore, I cast my vote for removal, if I want it to be separated, I can put it in a (side) BBcode or something xD
True, simply putting a "Border" BBcode around it would do the same, wouldn't it? That's actually the simplest solution overall if the borders get removed.Mordecai said:

If you don't want the border removed, just change your vote from "Current Border" to "Thinner Border" if thats what you chose originally. That's what I did anyway.
Is there not a way to have a BBCode that removes the border instead of having it permanently one way or the other? I don't exactly know how BBCodes work, or if you can create any, so excuse me if I sound ignorant or dumb.

There could be a bbcode that adds it back in.BLUR said:
Lets see if any of our creative users can figure it out.
