Forum Update: Images Deleted

Hey there everybody! The forum went down this past week due to running out of storage space. The majority of storage space was taken up due to to uploaded images. To help fix this, we’ve had to remove all uploaded images from the forum so that all topics could remain. Apologies for any inconvenience this causes!

And there was an image purge not too long ago, which results in past topics before that time being removed.

It’s not working! (height won’t show up)

[813MAVIS]

It’s also hard for me to see the stuff in the pictures (sometimes I see the pictures, sometimes not)

[SourApple]

There was an image purge, so some images stop loading. Sorry

[CuriousGimkitKid]

the images do not work for me
