Picture Uploads

Postby Abashed Llama » 24 October 2015, 21:13

I am very annoyed that I have to link a URL with [img] to normally upload a picture. Instead, I suggest that there be a button for uploading an image to a post or signature by importing it from your files on the computer.

I'm pretty sure you can attach pictures via the attachment tool, though you have a limited amount of attachments you can have in one post IIRC.

Better to link pictures anyways imo, since I'd rather not save every picture I want to show just to post it here.

Oh, I had no idea that there was an attachment tool. It would be nice if I could find it.

Uploading images requires them to be stored on PB2's servers, which would over time cause a lot of stress, slowing down the site and game. The [img]http://www.image.com[/img] BBCode tags allow images to be displayed from an external website's server, preventing any performance drops here.

Actually, Doom, that makes a little too much sense now that you mention it.
