As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words, and so users are permitted to upload a prescribed number of images to the server for no use other than to decorate their user pages, subject to the following standards:

A user may abandon a personal image. Once this happens, the user who uploaded it may mark it for [[Template:delete|deletion]], with the reason being "Abandoned PI" or "Abandoned personal image".
A user may abandon a personal image. Once this happens, the user who uploaded it may mark it for [[Template:Delete|deletion]], with the reason being "Abandoned PI" or "Abandoned personal image".


'''Before labeling an image as abandoned on behalf of another user, please ensure that they do not intend to continue using it in the near future''' (especially if the user is still under the numerical limit). Abandoned images should not be linked to from any page. Currently we are not mass-deleting abandoned images, but please note that they may be deleted at any time, and we will honor requests for deletion by the user who uploaded the file. (Note: We will also delete unused personal images that are the wrong format or that are of a poor quality, the same as any normal image.) Abandoned images may be claimed by another user, at which time the new user takes responsibility for the image.
