This is a drawing I did of CollectA's brown-throated sloth and giant anteater figures, both of which I own. The sloth has his head turned 270° in this drawing, something sloths can actually do thanks to having extra vertebrae in their neck, an excellent defense mechanism.

The picture is a bit too small for us to appreciate. Is this because of the forum's attachment size limit? If so, I can increase it.

@AnimalToyForum No, I think it's a bug. I looked at one of my posts that I made a few years ago and the attachment I put on was also extremely distorted like what you see here.

Wasn't like that when I posted it

I'm not convinced it's a bug, I think @anteatergirl2004 may have just uploaded a very small image.

@EpicRaptorMan could you point me to the post with the distorted image?

@AnimalToyForum lol that's embarrassing. I thought I provided a link.

Anyways, here it is on post number five:

I agree a small image was probably uploaded. Lots of us upload images via various ways and platforms with no issues.

I don't know why most people just don't use Postimages. it's fast, free, and very user friendly (just make sure one selects 'hotlinks for forums' rather than 'thumbnails for forums'

I see. Odd, because the attachment in the directory is perfectly fine, while the image in the post is pixellated. Let me look into it. Is this a one-off or are there other examples?

I'm sorry, guys.
I'm new to this forum and I'm not really sure how to post images clearly due to the strict file size requirements.

I suggest getting a free account with Postimages.
It's super easy to upload images, then just select the 'hotlink for forum options' and then paste (Control V) into the forum message.

Well for one there was the whole PhotoBucket outrage a handful of years ago that is still devastating forums across the internet — destroying an assortment of valuable information due to corporate greed. And they were seen as the go-to, fast, free, & friendly image hosting site.

OK. I will give it a try! Thank you!
