1. Try hottips? 2. Read Images In Wiki Pages 3. No, but don't go crazy.

Hey, that's very useful. Thanks!
As for #3: Well, the problem is that there's about 20 new images for every update of my LP. I'm already at mission 20 out of 60, so you can see how many images will there be to upload.
There are also character pics, of which I have about 200 so far, but there won't be a lot of new ones.
So, ~40-50 new images each week, does that count as crazy or not? They're not big, maybe 50kb each.

Physically, I don't think there's a limit to how many you can upload, but 2500 is a LOT of images. Since it's for the forums and not for use of the wiki proper, its seems like an unnecessary strain on the servers. You could host them on your own space, like Photobucket or Imageshack, but you'd need to use links, since off-site images show up as hotlinks.
Thanks for the all fish!

^ What he said. That's a whole lot of images for one forum thread. Putting them on a photo-sharing site makes a lot more sense.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.
It's closer to 1200 than 2500, but you are right. That's an unnecessary strain on something that really doesn't benefit TV Tropes as a whole.
However, linking images from my photobucket account rather than putting them in my post looks, well, ugly. Maybe I'll just move my LP to a different forum. No hard feelings.

Does this really need to be in pinned?
Support stupid freshness, yo.

Wait there's a way to make images not uploaded on TV Tropes show up in posts? Do tell.
Edit: Never mind.

No, you have to link to external images.

Read the policy. And found out about the rules.
1200 images?!? What are you liveblogging?!?

Two quick questions from a forum noob. I need this to format my LP into something that looks less butt-ugly.
1. Folders do not seem to work in forum posts. Is there a similar way to collapse the text into tabs like that?
2. Like the text formatting rules say, images you link automatically float to the left, and the text will appear to the right if there is room.
Is there way to prevent this if I do not want it? I hope to make the text appear under the image instead.
Actually, one more question:
3. Is there a limit on number of images I can upload to this site?
Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere. I looked but didn't find anything.
