Hey, it turns out that we'd been hosting it on photobucket this whole time and burned up the bandwidth allowance for it, so it doesn't work anymore.
So that was dumb. Everyone who was on staff when that happened really dropped the ball there and should all be fired like 4 rlz omg.
This reminds me that I haven't used it in a while.
Welp.
Whiskey time this week.

Yup, it's on Fifth's photobucket. I also have no idea how to upload anything to the forum server or even if I have permission to do that so I think this is a job for synk, probs.

It was me who uploaded the Seil tag there because, if I can't use it, no one will eventually be able to! temporarily

For what it's worth, I'd pointed out things like this as far back as 2010. At the time, a couple of the images used for custom titles and whatnot got moved from users' photobuckets as a result, but no clue if that was everything that needed to be moved.
I don't remember when the Seil tag was made or added to the list, but it was before my time as admin. It should have never been hosted off-site (we have a folder on the server for emoticons, banners, etc.), in my opinion, and had I known it wasn't I probably would have moved it once I had that power.
I don't have a copy of the image, or else I guess I could upload it now.
Alternatively, any admin can edit the URL for the icon; if shiney or I are not around to put it on NPF directly a forum profile gallery could be used (something Meister had done for a couple images back in 2010 in response to me).
Don't count on me for a while. As I posted in the staff section, I barely have any free time lately as I am trying to get my committee to come together so I can defend my dissertation while also dealing with the various mental health issues I probably have and am trying not to have a breakdown basically every single day.
There's your yearly dose of tmi from me, also, I guess.

If someone can get the image made available elsewhere I will put it on the server.

Ha! I wasn't aware that all my old threads tagged "me" are showing up with a big "Photobucket can not find your image" image. This is rich!
