As opposed to hotlinking, why not just upload a spacer gif to Wikipedia? Neftaly 03:52, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
From the article: "For instance, let's say the developer wants to create a blue box that is 500 x 500 pixels wide and high. Instead of using a separate blue graphic that is 500 x 500 pixels (taking up additional bandwidth), the developer can specify the table cell background color and specify the dimensions of the spacer GIF that already exists." This is a rather ridiculous example, since it would be trivial to create a 1x1 blue image and have it stretched to 500x500 using the height and width attributes of the img tag. I think this is original research on the part of the author. Ciotog (talk) 13:36, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
I removed 3 links from the bottom of the article. Two were dead and the third was a link to a page where you could download a spacer gif! I think most of us could just create one in 2 seconds. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.164.138.189 (talk) 09:23, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
This page and Spacer .GIF are about the same thing. While they contain similar information, there is enough different information and references that either one could take the other's info, while the one that doesn't take the info gets changed to a redirect. I don't know if there's a format or style preference as far as title is concerned - Spacer DOT GIF is noted as being written in British English, so perhaps that article should be merged here.
