Please bring in this feature, it takes only a little modification and a little of Limez's time...

Currently we cannot use team icons >5Kb.. That's an understandable size for emoticons, but definitely not for these icons..

Please please please please enable hotlinking.....

I am making my own set, and whatever I do I can't get a proper looking icon for less than 10 Kb....

If it works the same way as the phpbb rank icons, you could always upload your desired rank icon as an avatar to a spare account and then use the image URL (relative to the root path) as your link?

Sorry if i'm talking complete bull but i'm only trying to help =)

Well!!

That's an idea there! But it'd require me to have as many spare accounts as there are ranks, or half if I use the photo feature also.

I don't like the sound of that, the board will look really unprofessional with members hanging around with rank images to their avatars........

Might be worth it... I've got about 150 members (not that many active ones) and only like 8 are rank images. They're called "test" 1-8 and to be honest no-one really notices them =)

You could change their profile to say "I'm hosting your rank image, so hush up if you've found me" or something!
