I think screenshots are how we get the ridiculously huge images with poor resolution. I think on a mobile you can click and hold an image to get the option to save the file? Do that instead.
... Or, since I just looked and see you've already done it, I'll fix them. ^_^;

Are there any things, threads, that we’ve done before that we could do again? (Onetime or many times.)
—Ls
We could do Fill the Plothole again, it looks fun.
Though I’d have to look a while to find adequate fic summaries...

A time so long ago I cringe to see it, I started a Read & Review challenge, but completely failed to see it through. It would be cool to see it come back in some form if someone feels up to running it. I laid a lot of groundwork—feel free to use as much or as little as you'd like! I'd suggest that it should focus on stories by active PPCers, though, since no one is getting as much feedback as they'd like these days.
I'm not going to run it, because my follow-through is still garbage, but I could commit to giving everyone who participates a little low-effort reward, like Recolor.me avatars or agent IDs for one RC. If it happens, let me know!
~Neshomeh
I’d totally love to run this!
There’s a lot of good ideas on the old thread; I’ll probably start the new thread in a week or so, whenever I have time.
However, I’m definitely not gonna be able to give any Real World prizes. (However, I’d love a recolor.me avatar for Carlisle, I cannot figure out how to make him.)
—Ls likes this idea!
The Recolor.me, that is. Generic middle-aged white guy, huh? That's... not much to work with. What's his hair style? Preferred type of clothes? Preferred colors besides PPC black?
... And I'll probably do Mina while I'm at it, so you have a set that will be the same size and all, but I can use her existing image as a reference, so that's easy.
ETA: Mina, matched as closely as possible except I gave her a nose cuz she's not Voldemort. ^_~
~Neshomeh
Seriously, though, it’s great. 🤩
—RxV, AKA Ls
He has short grey (with an “e”) hair, blue eyes, a crooked-ish nose, is rather skinny, and fairly tall. He dresses somewhat formally, (No shorts. EVER.) often will wear suits, and does, in fact, wear black. As much as possible.
—Ls
Mr. Fancy-Grumpy-Pants here kinda reminds me of the Twelfth Doctor. ^_^
~Neshomeh
I’m sure Carlisle would say that he’s not that tired-looking, and he doesn’t have that big a head, and that his name is NOT Mr. Fancy-Grumpy-Pants.
But he’s a liar. It’s wonderful. I will screenshot and upload to the wiki at my soonest convenience.
—Ls hasn’t seen Doctor Who, sadly.

Sigh. I didn’t realize that. But I can fix the images.
—Ls
ETA: You’ve already done so.
Thanks for that. I will remember for next time.
Which reminds me, a while ago I made myself a coat of arms, but I lost it. I found it again on my bedroom floor of all places.
To share an image, you need to upload it somewhere online (e.g. Imgur; yes, you can use it for social image sharing, just not commercial image hosting) and then provide the full image URL, starting with "https" and so forth.
~Neshomeh
I don't have Imgur, but would it work if I put it on Discord or something and used that as the link?
Now add width="400" after the src="[url]" bit to make the image smaller (400 pixels wide, in this example), and it should be good!
~Neshomeh
The Mailbox Game, for one. I don't remember seeing it for a long time, but that might be explained by my abstinence from the Board.
I‘d like that.
