Me and Patrick have been having a slight argument on the relevence of images throughout a topic, and whether or not it is right to post these images if the image only is relevant to only a portion of that users post. I'll post are discussion so far below.
-----------------------------------
Me: Well,you quoted a division by zero.
Him: Get to the point rather than criticize me for allegedly dividing by zero!
Me: Image Spam is the best, especially in this section.
Him: You are completely wrong. Image spam is bad.
Anyway, you get a 1/10 for continuing to post image spam.
In case of ninja, this is at Krizaz.
Me: I'm gonna ask a mod (never did) if an image is appropriate when relevant to the topic, which all images have been. Even the cowboy one.
Him: The answer to the first part of your post is probably yes as long as you don't spam them. As for the images posted, it is up to the moderators to determine an image's relevance, not you or me. I simply called them spam because I think that they're irrelevant.
Me: But how is it irrelevant if I can back up why I posted the image with a quote or stating myself why I posted it. If my logic is correct, than your statement is invalid and you are contradicting yourself.
Him: Your argument is futile because it ultimately comes down to the mods/admins. In fact, I flagged each image from you other than the ninja because I thought that it was irrelevant and therefore spammy.
Me: But you fail to realize that each image had it's reason to be up there. I was not posting an image for the sake of posting an image (hint: I was), and even if I did it was all relevant. I'm creating a topic for this so we can get some posting count credit.
-----------------------------------------
So you see, were at a bit of a spilt point. And we need your input to tell us what is right, and to see what the problem is refer to the topic 'how much respect do you have for this user' and look for pages 367-370.
------------------------------------------
Obviously, I think that I can post an image as long as it is a bit relevant and you pout your reason for posting that image, as I did. Although Patrick disagrees, and I cannot tell if he thinks it is wrong to post an image at all or if you should have more text to post an image.
Your input is welcome.
By just mentioning the 'serf' thing, you have just brought it up and now made everyone focus on that instead of the thing at hand. Relative input.
stfu,surf imitator!

Images are relevant for they speak louder than words.
Well, I have an owl (from iMogwai's image)
And if anyone thinks otherwise... Well...
How does an owl relate to whether something is wrong or not?
Not all of them. Besides, it depends on what the image is and what the topic is. Therefore, it is wrong to say that.
Shoot, I got ninja'd.
But I guess that's not such a bad thing, because it proved me right.
Some images are - some aren't...
The rule of thumb: if it adds to the post, go ahead. If it doesn't then it's useless...
If you're not sure, then that would mean that if you left it out you'd be fine.
So... all pictures are relevant if you can provide support.
Support is not a legalizer. It only works if it is right and relevant.
If the support is from an quote from your post, or anthers post, it would be completely relevant to the topic and therefore belongs int he topic.
Just STFU,surf imitator.
A quote is only proper support if the quote is relevant. Therefore, if you quote something spammy, it is not support for an image.
Having an owl doesn't automatically make an image relevant.
