sorry to take up your time and bother you with this...
maybe alot of people have mentioned this or brought it up
but i had a small suggestion/idea for the site...

anyway the idea is ithe idea of setting up an image uploader for the forums... i know theres the picture tab and able to post the direct url from sites for a picture, but what about being able ot upload straight from the computer?

when i upload a picture i go through imageshack.us and sometimes the size of the picture isnt the way it tells me, or there tends to be a problem.
i also see people who cant upload a picture the right way and others try to help, also people post up an outside link to said picture.

just a thought, i searched a few pages maybe read over one like this but i didnt see it.
but i think it would be great if there was a button next to the url where you can upload a picture directly from the computer to the forum, kind of like the avatar layout? idk... just a thought

if not, is there anyway i can learn to the reason why not?

Would need tons of free space from servers. No need.
And as you know, there is plenty of good sited for uploading.
So i dont really see this as needed

I don't see why there should be an image uploader when there are perfectly good image hosts out there. To name a few: Imgur, TinyPic, Photobucket. All of these have worked for me just fine in the past. If you're having a problem with ImageShack, maybe it's time to try out TinyPic or Imgur. Both are great hosts. :)

Voted no. In my opinion, there's no need to waste space on the servers when there are sites built specifically for these images.

I think it could be useful, definitely an interesting idea. You could go even farther with it and have it tell you if your sig/other stuff meets the requirements for the site when you upload them.

Not needed with all the other image hosting websites available on the internet.
