PokéCommunity is preparing to undergo a major update in 2023. All members should ensure they can access the email associated with their account as a password reset might be required post-update. The exact date of transition will be made available at a later date.

It appears IMGUR will be (and apparently has already started) deleting images that weren't uploaded directly to an account. You can check the update notes on IMGUR here.

We know a lot of you will have used IMGUR to upload images for your threads and other PC content (signatures, flairs, etc.) and not everyone was doing so with an account.

So please note that some of your existing images may break at some point in the future. We recommend making an IMGUR account if you plan to continue using IMGUR.

Banner suggestions

Roni, Mar 2021: just a random suggestion that came to mind for a poster for any season in general: a light switch with ON and OFF labels, and a hand pushes it down to OFF while the word "Topic" is beside it.

brush and flush

ReKoil, Aug 2021: Wrap up anything I'm doing and turn my computer off. Take my meds. Brush teeth. Go to the toilet. Wash hands and if I have a headache take Paracetamol. Lie awake for a couple hours while my brain decides to process random things. Nap time.

Minimalist or sentimental?

moon, Aug 2021: Minimalist for sure. I decorate sparsely and purposedly, and I only keep some sentimental mementos but logic tells me that i will never use them nor put them up for display so they just lie in boxes somewhere. But I'm still sentimental too....

August and September are the most beautiful months

Cherished Possessions/stuff of value that you own

Alex, Aug 2021: Probably my PC. I built it back in 2016 and have upgraded a few parts since then, and I use it every day without fail. Not only for hobbies, but for my work now too. I would be scrambling if this thing stopped working all of a sudden.
