Signature Question

I'm assuming the answer yes but is there a specific reason you can't upload an image to your signature but you can insert one from a link?
 
The specific reason why you can only have one image in your signature is because more than one image can cause distractions, and clutter.


 
Same with links.
 
When you insert an image in your signature, it is automatically perceived and stored in the site server's memory. Now, imagine each one of the 18k+ members having 100+ images in their signatures, stored on the server's memory.


Forgive clutter, the server would just go right ahead and commit seppuku.
 
Gentleman I believe the question was why you can't upload a picture to your signature, like with upload a file. You can only add an image to your signature from inserting a link.


And I have no clue. Probably because it'd need to upload repeatedly or something. If you need to upload a picture you can use imgur to upload it and get a link to insert it.

Now I know you are definitely blind.


I literally answered that question:

It doesn't take a genius to figure out the function's disabled, starting from that premise.
 
Oh Oh wait. Waait. I see what you're saying. It's not very clear though.
 
Actually I take that back. If RPN uploads a linked image to its servers for a signature I see no reason why you can't upload a single image from your device and use it. It would be the same process but it would not be taken from the internet but rather your device.
 
Because showing an image through a link does not save that image on the site's server. The image is on the server of the site the link sends to.
 
Ah


Your post confused me. You simply said insert so I thought you meant lined images as well. I mean that is technically inserting an image ;D

Alright, let's play nice. It was a simple question and someone misinterpreted your answer. Calm down and use your manners.

We have a little game going on throughout the site between certain site members called "Who can be the meanest without outright insulting?".


It's tons of fun, I admit.

I heard about them in the stories the Internet Wizard used to tell us back in his dungeon.


I mean tower.


It was totally a tower.
