I lose tbt every time I post my designs in my clothing thread, even though I feel like I'm contributing to the forum, not making a nuisance of myself by repeat posting.

I can put a maximum of 15 pictures in each post, so I could be posting 3 designs per post without including pictures of what the design looks like on a character, but I prefer to do that so people have an idea of what it looks like on. To make things look neater, I've been posting designs one at a time with a picture of it on a character (5 pictures total in each post). Posting 6 designs just cost me around 40 tbt :/

I'd like some help/ suggestions from the staff here, though advice from members is welcome, too.
 
You're not losing TBT Bells for post merges, you're losing TBT Bells because you're uploading your images using the forum image uploader, which costs 2 TBT Bells/image to host it on the site. If you don't want to pay this fee, simply use an external site, such as Imgur, to upload your images, and then post the IMG URL in the
tags. It doesn't cost any TBT Bells that way, and I personally find it much easier to use than the forum uploader.
 
Oh, okay. I've been using an N3DS to upload my pictures because I don't have an SD adaptor for my laptop, but I guess I can still try uploading to imgur first. Thanks for the tip!

Is this something relatively new? I don't remember ever losing bells before, well about five months ago and going back from there. More recent yes but not back then.

Yeah, I think it's always been there.
