Anonymous7: there's a running joke in futurama with advertising. Such as the new product "Walrus Juice", and the catchphrase is "Do the Walrus". I would imagine this is a reference to that
Decanter: @Rat@J-debs@hentaimaster: Relax, we removed it intentionally. It might or might not be permanent - we're experimenting with reducing site resource use and improving performance. In the meantime, there is an "Image Only" button on the left side of every image's page.
Rat: @Decanter: I don't understand how making everyone open a an extra page, having the servers process and load lots of extra code they didn't want instead of just loading one image directly would improve site performance.
With the image only option we can skip all the coding only needed for voting, checking and editing tags/sources and commenting.
Since most images use the broken and dysfunctional 002 and 003 servers we still have to manually open the image URL and change to 000, 004 or 005 to get images to load properly anyway.
Rat: And about the "There is an "Image Only" button on the left side of every image's page." message.
Why is there an image only button on the image pages?
The image page already has the image itself right there on the page, do we really need an additional button with the exact same URL an extra time?
What purpose does that serve on the image page where the image itself already exists?
Wouldn't removing that redundant button improve performance, even by a little?
That button doesn't work properly anyway. When it's a format beside .jpg it incorrectly changes the filename to .jpg, so you still have to manually change it, and the only way to know what the correct format is is to check the image URL on the image itself anyway, at which point you already have the entire correct URL making the button completely obsolete.
Decanter: @Rat: Can you please provide examples of this happening? I just tried with a PNG and it worked fine.
The button is there because if the image fails to load completely you don't have a way to get the link to the image, unless you want to be very inconvenienced and dig through page source. As for your other questions, you'd have to ask Shish.
Mance: If an image fails to load fully, how do you not have access to the link? Even if the image didn't load at all (because it's only on some or none of the data servers - it'd be nice to see them all synced up one day) you still get the broken image symbol thing that you can play with.
fishmonger: @Rat: This isn't true. I don't know what operating system nor browser you are using, but on Windows in Firefox, even improperly named images can function properly. For example, if for some reason an animated GIF has a JPG extension, Firefox will still animate it. There's no such thing as an animated JPG, but Firefox recognizes the actual image type and does what it is supposed to do.
I have Safari, Chrome, and IE; Safari and Chrome properly animate a GIF renamed to a JPG, but I don't care enough about IE to take the few seconds necessary to test it.
This should in theory apply to other formats as well (such as a JPG showing transparency), but I haven't tested that.
Rat: @Decanter: Seems to work better now, it now adds a ? at the end after the .png but beside that I got .png when I tried a .png, so that's good..
An image that fails to load still has that broken image icon you can click on to open in a new tab or get the URL info from though, so even then the button is redundant.
Why would you have to go to the page source to get that? What browser are you using that doesn't have those options for broken images?
I use Chrome, IE and Opera on Windows 7.
The only thing I have that doesn't have that option is my surf tablet when using a mobile version of Opera Classic, but it has another browser that works in those cases.
@fishmonger: I think you misunderstood me, I never meant that the images didn't work to display, just that they got the wrong format name, they still work for the most part but some programs can have problems if filenames have the wrong endings so when everything became .jpg it could make images problematic when used in other programs.
I could still see the images fine in the browser even if the file name was wrong.
fishmonger: @Rat: Ah, so you were saying that some images might display a filename such as "142843 - Futurama Hermes_Conrad Orange_Box featured_image.png.jpg" or something along those lines? This image isn't a png and I don't know one off the top of my head, so I can't see for myself if that happens on ever one of them or not.
Rat: @fishmonger: It replaced the ending, so a "54635 - tagme.png" would become "54635 - tagme.jpeg", but yeah, pretty much.
Works now though, only now there's a "?" at the end for some reason, so now the example would become "54635 - tagme.png?" in the url. Odd but whatever as long as it works, I guess.
fishmonger: @Rat: Does it still save properly? A question mark isn't an acceptable character in a file name, so if you right-click/save as, it should come up with the "54635 - tagme.png" name sans point d'interrogation.
Decanter: @Rat: I don't even get the question mark. Again examples would be helpful. Does it save properly, and do you have to modify the filename to save?
When I used the image only button on the image page there's then a ? added at the end of the URL and when I "Save as.." it automatically changes it to .jpg at the end again.

When using IE9 it doesn't add the ? and it saves as .png, as it should.
