I've just read the whole thing. It's important that this is a manga rather than just a written story because it elevates it above what it would be if it was just text; the same can be said of Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z itself. Most of DB/Z would work horribly as just text and a huge portion of it would just be descriptions of fights. A huge part of the appeal of DB/Z is the visual style - in many way, reading a text representation of DB/Z would be about as helpful and close to the original as reading a text representation of Woodstock or Live Aid. Overall, I'm sure most of us would agree that Toriyama is a fantastic mangaka but would make a lousy novelist.

I wouldn't have guessed that Krillin is wearing the turtle symbol on his back. I think it safe to say that Krillin won this match, rightfully so. Nice to see the humans in the spot light again.

That would have been the most awesome thing ever.

There's nothing wrong with posting the pages here, really. A lot of people end up going to the site anyway. I know I usually do.

I kind of like the pages being posted here to be honest. I don't see why that would be an issue unless many people here are running on dial-up or something.

There is that. But the bandwidth would be used whether we're looking at the picture here or there, wouldn't it?

It's not like it's hosted on Daizex, so it's completely harmless.

And I doubt it gets significant enough traffic to really affect the DBM site.

Jeez, I didn`t know it would cause such a fuss.

Even if I or someone else posts the page here, the page itself is still hosted on the site.

So technically, as long as I or someone else doesn`t host the image somewhere else, the bytes from the image are still coming from the proper site, and the page is still getting the views it should. It just saves some time.

I don`t see anything wrong with it, but if you want me to stop, I`ll stop... :roll:

Seriously no offence intended, but I don't see the point in worrying about it, either? Maybe I'm missing something.

Fair enough, I just wanted to play devil's advocate.
