Hey there!
1. A common way people show others pictures of their pets is to copy the image address of their pet. Simply hover over the pet, right click, and select "copy image address". Through CS, you would use the code [img]imageaddresshere[/img] to display the pet. Through other websites, you can just click "copy image", the image address isnt necessary for off-site, just for CS. No downloading is needed!
2. If it isn't in the archive yet, people do just compare outcomes! Usually on forums such as the
April 2021 Discussion Thread, or any other thread similar depending on the month or the event. However, the archive usually updates swiftly, so you shouldn't have to wait long.
Hope this helps! Please let me know if anything is confusing or needs clarification.
