All,

We finally have an image uploader! Now we can host images directly in our forums and don't have to use an external images hosting service.

A big thanks to SirDude, our consultant, who has done great work over the years to help keep BITOG running smoothly (and it takes a lot of work!).

Enjoy,

Your BITOG team

Seriously, don't abuse the uploader!

It wasn't the image uploader that was abused with that image

The size limit is kind small at 2 mb. Isn't it possible to upload a larger picture and just have the forum re size it? The pictures I take with my phone are like 5 mb

This is massively useful though as photobucket has monkeyed their interface to require about 20 clicks and enforced wait times (for ad viewings.)
 
Woohoo!! It's always a bummer when you search and end up in a forum where all the pics are dead flickr links. I like that about forum hosted images will be there for as long as the forum survives. Thanks!

Agreed! Especially when its a scan of a UOA that you were really hoping to eyeball.

No, there isn't.

+1. Any decent smart phone takes normal pictures well over 2mb.

Is there any chance this is being looked into? there are many times I want to re-post pics I did in the past and sometimes I can't find them with the search, so I instead re-post the pic again, taking up more server space.

I'd also be inclined to upload more images, if we could edit our own image library, such as updating and/or removing them. Quite a few other Boards have this feature, and it would likely encourage more members to share images.
