All pics that were directly uploaded to this site were removed some time ago in favour of using hosting sites such as Photobucket......etc. Saves massive ammounts of server space & also increases the speed of users accessing threads with photo's. Granted, it makes older threads like this (especially the guides) next to useless but more will come in the future without sacrificing the running speed of this site. :)
