piture hosting question?


edit;"Picture"

Will this site ever allow us to upload screenshots that can auto resize when viewed?


It would be a nice feature instead of those that do not have a webhost to have to rely on imagecrapshack and the likes.It could be a decent privaledge for long time users,like so many months or posts gets you 1 upload per thread and up to maybe 5.
Contributing users can get instant maybe.Just a thought.

I know hosting is expensive for large help/support sites but I think its so much easier when a problem arises where a screeny is needed.Contributions can go towards hosting an image server.

Just a thought/question.

Its certainly a good idea, but it would use up a lot of bandwith and increase the running costs of the site. Jeremy uses a lot of his own money to keep the site running, so I don't think its necessary to include snazzy features that will just increase the burden of cost on one individual.

Contributing Members can upload a single pic to their profile, which replaces the Contributing Member desktop gallery from the old site.
