Probably, so why not use it in the message section next to the other icons?

You can tick this one[^] off the list as well now.

It's a CDN. If you look at the source of this page, you'll see that most of the images and stylesheets are loaded from that domain.

Basic Difference Between Local Storage and Session Storage in HTML 5[^]
I just asked author about my doubts as the title says "Difference between..." and there is not a single difference mentioned on the page. When i received response that he uploaded some images but that's not visible at the moment, i found the content has approved version. I'm still not clear why to accept that as Tip/Trick.
QA is already a big mess. If we will start approving even such Articles/Tips, that will strongly affect the overall quality of this site. I think, it has started already e.g. you can have content like this[^] and this[^] as Tip/Trick.

This has been debated many times and was even the object of a poll[^]. A lot of people are seeking Internet reputation or CP reputation just by getting their mate to approve of their articles.
In a nutshell, so far:
- Making public who has approved or rejected an article is, for some reasons I still cannot understand, considered a bad thing. I am convinced it would slow down a little bit the BS approving, for instance because people farming rep points would be clearly identified.
- The reputation points to allow moderation should be set higher, and the moderation privilege shall only rely on technical inputs. I usually take my own case as an example : I should not be allowed to approve or reject articles, since I got this privilege solely from having upvoted posts in the Lounge, which is certainly not an evidence of me having the skills to decide whether a content is appropriate and relevant for the site.
- Filtering quality early in the chain (so reducing the total amount of articles) is not an objective of CP(*) : CP lives thanks to traffic, e.g. number of people visiting, not thanks to content quality, e.g. number of people being happy with content or effectively finding something useful here. The more articles, the more hits on google search, and the more hits on google search, the more traffic... Sorting out bad from good content is done by people up and downvoting articles once published.
(*)This is my understanding of it.

This is debatable. If I google for info and go to a place in several ocasions just to waste my time. It will get into my black list and won't go back "just to check if now is better"
In other words, I prefer fewer but better.

Depends who you talk to.
I'll review and make an ill-advised, arbitrary snap decision on which way it should go.

We can't count downloads offsite. We could trap clicks to offsite hosting of code, but we can't then tell whether they've merely visited a page or actually downloaded the code.

Yeah - obviously system is easy to trick... but so is current one - i.e. I could just put up link to empty zip (or text file with link to GitHub) and say it source code download.
So, I am wondering, could we find a way to improve this? Like if you are against counting clicks to repository (even though it's the same thing - intent is to browser source code) could I link to zip that downloads repository:
https://github.com/lepipele/csharpWebCam/archive/master.zip[^]
I definitely think that linking Git repository is improvement over linking zip with source code and people shouldn't be penalized for using it.
Thanks for listening and let me know what is decided - I could help with implementing this if you are short on dev resources.

We (speaking as a community member rather than as a CP staff member) definitely prefer projects to have at least a version of your code here on CodeProject rather than out in CodePlex. Part of the reason for this is that it's incredibly easy for a project and an article to get out of sync if they are hosted in different locations. At least, if we have a version here, we have a project that is a snapshot taken at a point in time. By all means, link out to your CodePlex/Github/etc article, but have a version here.

I mean - you can view this problem from different perspectives. But the core of the problem is if I leave version of code here on CodeProject people will download that version of code and then CAN'T CONTRIBUTE. Exact reason why Git was invented.
