Photo attachments are now enabled on the forum, meaning you no longer have to use external services to post images to the site. I have added a size limit (the site does resize the image for you, so you don't have to do it yourself) and there is some compression, but hopefully it will make things easier for people wanting to post photos :) :camera:
 
Great move - well done, there's many who struggle or simply can't be bothered with using external hosts. I'll give it a try next time :thumbsup:
 
Nice one Sp3tre. :thumbsup: Can take hours loading up to external sights when writing up road trips. We have no excuse now. :wink:
 
Does this only work from a PC ? I can't get the button to work on my iPad :(

But... A great innovation nonetheless :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
 
Given how little I have been on here of late, I thought I caught this one quite quickly :D

I'm sure I have missed loads though :(

No idea, I don't use an Ipad... it's the normal attachment functionality of the forum software though so there's probably not a lot I can do about it if it doesn't work.

Edit: Just tried it from my iphone and it works fine... same OS I guess so should work. You using Safari?

Excellent feature - working perfectly on the xperia, much easier to post using the phone (I haven't seen a pc in years) :P
 
Just a test, it works on 'post reply' screen, but not the 'quick reply' - from safari iPhone 5... Any ideas?

Np, definitely a cool feature though, I'm sure photo bucket is going to drop in usage... Hope the new feature doesn't impact costs for the site as I'm sure space usage will ramp up, but at least will also help cut out broken pic links as seen on old threads as pics will be local :thumbsup:
