Re: FFR Suggestions

How hard would it be to code to allow pictures to be uploaded into the discussion section of the 'social groups' on this site?

Re: FFR Suggestions

Wait, people use those groups?

Re: FFR Suggestions

Yea, would it be hard to code to where we can upload pictures straight from our computer into discussions? That would make it a lot easier than having to use outside (photobucket) links.

Depends on how familiar the staff is with vB. But it's probably easy, who knows.

If you don't see it, then it's not easy.

Bandwidth? Besides, hosting is more convenient for the forums since you can directly hotlink them into posts with [IMG][/IMG] tags. It's also more organized than having to go straight to the bottom of a post.

^this too
Why is it easier to use vB's crappy upload system than go to an easyshare site like imageshack or imgur? :\

Re: FFR Suggestions

I click 'print screen', paste it into paint, save the file, and then directly upload it, it doesnt take a middle man. Oh well, I guess I'll go check out photobucket again.

Re: FFR Suggestions

imgur you can just drag and drop onto the window whatever image you want, and you don't even need an account.

Re: FFR Suggestions

Wait. I thought all you wanted was to be able to use [IMG] Tags in the discussion? Is there any way to enable it for the social group discussions?

[TheSaxRunner05]

Re: FFR Suggestions

So far, the best thing we've figured out is just to put a link to a saved replay for the discussions

Judging by Velo's post, I don't think it's easy.

Was he referring to the lack of BBcode in the discussions or SaxRunner's post on coding something different?

Re: FFR Suggestions

Both, social groups were designed for text only. There's no options for anything related to them besides enable/disable.
