I want to put this [http://dojorkan.googlepages.com/Promethian_Guard_Group_Picture_by_Ce.jpg image] on my profile without hosting it here, I dont want to eat up Halopedia's space. Is there anyway I can make a thumbnail image of this offsite image just like I would with a image that was hosted here?

About Offsite Images[edit]

I want to put this image on my profile without hosting it here, I dont want to eat up Halopedia's space. Is there anyway I can make a thumbnail image of this offsite image just like I would with a image that was hosted here? —This unsigned comment was made by Dojorkan (talkcontribs).

You'd have to manually upload a thumb image offsite and then use this code: [(address of big image) (address of thumb image)], and use div codes to move it around the page. --Dragonclaws(talk) 02:58, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
In truth, Halopedia has techically unlimited space, so you don't really have to host anything from off site. -ED 21:37, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
Well, obviously not unlimited, but that's what the upload page says, so you might want to change it, although the immediately subsequent point is still valid. guesty-persony-thingy 21:40, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
