It all depends on staff availability and time. I do believe it is only Anthony who processes these requests, so please be patient.

Yes, it is only I that process the requests. Some people get lucky (Lately, anyway) and it appears in my inbox while I'm doing Cantr related things, so it get done right then and there. However, 12 hours of my entire 16 hour day is spent at work, so that leaves me with a mere 4 hours of "personal" time. That being:

- Working on Cantr Related Materials
- Showering my girlfriend with love and hugs (If a girlfriend is present at the time, that is.)
- Shopping for food, necessary to survive...
- Going to the bathroom.

But, I had completed all back-ordered image requests just an hour prior to seeing this thread, so, you all should have a smile now. Yay.

And as well, if you don't get a responce for your image posts by me in 24 working hours, please PM me or e-mail me directly with the e-mail button you see at the bottom of my posts, or in my profile. Just a nice kick in the ass, is all I need, heh. Plus, it is always possible that my spam filter shredded it, cause... it's happened before... *Snicker*

But I get most (Well, not this past month, anyway...) upload requests done the same day, or very early the next.

[Edit]: And Peanut, yours was delayed due to the fact it went to Programming Department (As least, that's what I figure, when it was forwarded to me from Programming...). So, pictures@cantr.net please!

Peanut, I think it IS possible but not allowed...

Think about it: at a certain moment you drop your note with your own hosted image on the ground, say, in Seatown. You leave and forget about the note.

After a while you find a real life and stop playing characters in our virtual cantr-world and your host stops...

The note would lose its value suddenly, also for those who copied it and were relying on it for some reason, not knowing it would vanish from the one day to the other...

Yep. It is much preferred that you allow Cantr to host the images. There are already a fair number of notes out there with a big red X...

Not perferred. Required. Linking to an off-site image is against the Captail Rule!

...Okay, it isn't, but let me explain my reasoning. By linking to an off-site image, you're therefore using "OOC" information in game. However, if linking to a Cantr hosted image, you're using in game materials in game. See, it makes sense, right?
