Can we validate a CDN like Max in Webmasters?

Hi, Can we validate a CDN like Max in Webmasters?
We have images hosted in CDN and they dont get indexed in Google images. Its been a year now and no luck. Maxcdn says they have no issues at there end and images have ALT and they are original images with no copyright issues

You can't get their domain validated in your Google Search Console account (unless they add you as a user to their account), however there is a workaround more or less described here: Getting CDN images indexed with Google
In short:
If your image is for example on https://12345.maxcdn.com/images/directory/subdirectory/image-filename.jpgYou can add a CNAME (alternate domain name) to make the URLs formatted like this: http://images.yourdomain.com/images/directory/subdirectory/image-filename.jpg
After that you can add "images.yourdomain.com" as a verified domain in Google Search Console and treat it as a new subdomain, incl. sitemaps etc.
Hope this helps

Can you noindex a page, but still index an image on that page?
If a blog is centered around visual images, and we have specific pages with high quality content that we plan to index and drive our traffic, but we have many pages with our images...what is the best way to go about getting these images indexed? We want to noindex all the pages with just images because they are thin content... Can you noindex,follow a page, but still index the images on that page? Please explain how to go about this concept.....

When should we use Remove URLs feature on Google Webmasters Tool?
Hi there, I run an ecommerce website on Magento. We are no longer using a category. It actually does not appear on the menu: mydomain.com/category.html If this is the case, do you recommend to remove it through the Removal URL feature on GWT? I don't want this to affect the juice of other links of the site such as: mydomain.com/product.html Thanks very much. Regards

We have just completed the redesign of our product page, which you can see here: http://www.uksoccershop.com/p-19045/2011-12-Chelsea-Adidas-Away-Football-Shirt.html Because we want the select size / add to basket section to appear prominently, you can see we are showing only a snippet of the product description in this section and then user has to click "more" to see it.

What's the max number of links you should ever have on a page?
Our homepage has a few hundred links and our index pages(pages that link to our spintext pages) have about 900 links on them with no content. Our SEO guy said we have to keep the links under 1000 but I wanted to see what you guys think.
