in thread May we quest for new (top right) perlmonk images

I'm not sure which of the gods you think relishes the thought of becoming the judge in a little dog show of no real import. For the record, I do not.

If this sounds like a fun or trivial activity, then I suggest you declare yourself the sole collector and arbiter of inclusion-worthy pictures from members above level $X and then you can batch up the requests after you've determined the ones worth including, the ones in an acceptable format, of the right size, from a person of sufficient level, and where enough time has passed that you are reasonably sure that the submitter is not soon going to change their mind.

Please also file a patch to have said images link to message outbox addressed to you in case there are issues to be reported with any of them.

Thanks. :)

    Right, except that they do act as a sort of advertisement for PerlMonks. One of the criteria for acceptance would be that the image is suitable for that purpose.

    Thank you, I accept. ;-)
    However, we should probably obtain some kind of consensus that even this is an acceptable way to proceed.

    Er, no; I think it's fine for the monkpics to continue to link where they do now, namely Land of Monks and Honey. We can add a message and link to that node, explaining what one should do (e.g. /msg pmdev) in the event of problems.

    I reckon we are the only monastery ever to have a dungeon stuffed with 16,000 zombies.
