Image URL persistence/availability for other users - within script

Hey guys, I'm making an update to a public script to have some additional graphical chat output with an image as background. Adding a background-image to a &lt;div&gt; works under my account, but I have a couple rookie questions: Will this image URL be accessible to others using the script? URL is like "<a href="https://s3.amazonaws.com/files.d20.io" rel="nofollow">https://s3.amazonaws.com/files.d20.io</a>...." so I'm thinking others can get this from the amazon server. Just wanted to verify. If I ever delete the image from my user library, I'm assuming this will break the URL for other users?

Correct on both points. I have in the past created fake users to mule graphics for a script.&nbsp; If your graphics are only going in chat, they can be hosted just about anywhere.

Great, thanks Aaron! Good idea with the fake user. The image is pretty simple - some concentric circles with a radial gradient background and some additional features. I could probably draw it close enough with div styles and inline css which I imagine would be "safer", though it would probably take me a while to figure out since I have limited experience with that stuff. Good to know I have options! :)
