Any way we could post pictures straight from our devices as opposed to having to upload to a third party first? Like on facebag? Be so much simpler and would generate more sharing, at least in our private forums. Public forums would benefit as well I believe.

phpBB already has this functionality, it's just a matter of turning it on from the admin control panel...

and again, we have been asking for it for years. i think that is common knowledge, right? if not, i apologize. we have never really gotten a solid answer as to why it isn't done. could it possibly overwhelm the servers? i don't know much about 'puters and the internets, i just use my aol and yahoo and hope for the best

... anyway, still waiting... and here is another golden oldie...
INSOMNIA RED!!!
anyway, would love a real answer... the black jesus has spoken...-Jésus noir

I honestly don't know for sure, but I strongly suspect that CC doesn't make enough money to pay for the bandwidth that it would take to allow people to host pictures directly on the site. That is why we have to host on 3rd-party imaging sites.
