:::::::Oh. The reason I thought it was your ad blocker was becuase the image is stored in the [http://www.hrwiki.org/images/a/ad/ /ad/] subdirectory of the images directory.

:::::::::There are performance issues if a directory contains a large number of files, it's better to have a bunch of directories with a smaller number of files in each. To avoid creating a single massive uploads directory (especially on a large wiki, like Wikipedia, where it could become a problem) the MediaWiki software creates a 2-hexadecimal-digit [[Wikipedia:Hash function|hash code]] based on the image name, and uses that to categorise the image files, so that there are about 1/256 as many images in each directory. In particular, it uses the first 2 digits of the [[Wikipedia:MD5|MD5]] sum. The MD5 sum of "balladofthesneak.PNG" is <code>ad53122b3fa2b9da0ba28a959ef0cd98</code> &ndash; the first two digits being <code>ad</code>. So it's sorted in the /ad/ folder, which may result in a false positive in some ad-blockers. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 08:35, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

:::::::::::Well, I've suggested it [http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6020 here], we'll see what happens. Certainly not until we get 1.6, and possibly not until we get 1.7... it depends where the change is made. Or if they make the change at all... [edit]: Well that was quick, it was a duplicate of [http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5402 this bug], which has been marked "WONTFIX". So yeah. Not going to happen. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 11:39, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

On one of your edit summaries, you called me "Chris," which I'm assuming means "Yeltensic." I'm '''not''' Yelt. You can tell us apart: I'm a Christian, Yelt is an atheist; I'm a conservative, Yelt is a liberal; Yelt likes ''The Simpsons'' (last time I checked), I'd rather give myself a swirlie than watch it; I'm pretty sure Yelt hates Bush, and I don't hate him at all. So yeah, we're totally different people. {{User:Darth Katana X/sig}}

::No prob. Since we're both pretty much cynics and I just got unblocked after a month, it's easy to get us confused. {{User:Darth Katana X/sig}}
