Image upload now enabled - Orion Pobursky - 2014-01-30
I've enabled the ability to attach images with the png, gif, and jpg extensions. All others are disallowed. Please do not upload large images. If this is abused, I will disable image upload.

Good, we needed that, but how big is "too big"?
How many kb or pixels is acceptable?
Re: Image upload now enabled - Orion Pobursky - 2014-01-30
I leave that up to you. Be responsible. The hard upload limit imposed by PHP on my server is (I think) 6.9 MB but I'd say that you should prolly think hard if you're uploading and image that's more than 1MB

Ok, it is now possible to attach a picture, but how do I show that picture in my message?
I know there is a button "insert image url" when I write a message, but how do I find the url to my attached image?
Or do I have to upload it to another place, like Brickshelf or Photobucket, before I can link to it?
Re: Image upload now enabled - Orion Pobursky - 2014-02-09
Hmm. Not sure. I'll look into this unless someone else has figured it out and cares to share
Re: Image upload now enabled - Michael Heidemann - 2014-02-09
I like to show the picture hand.png, so first I upload the picture.
Second step is edit this message and put the img tag around the
Problem is, that you do not know the two numbers (in this case /23/1148/) of the link.
Does anybody has a better way?
Re: Image upload now enabled - Philippe Hurbain - 2014-02-09
I used the following method: prepare your message, attach your image, post it. The posted message contains a link to the image, edit your post to include it with "insert image url"
Re: Image upload now enabled - Michael Heidemann - 2014-02-09
Same approach than me
I have to add that the open link should be used.
Re: Image upload now enabled - Philippe Hurbain - 2014-02-09
...and same post time stamp
Re: Image upload now enabled - Orion Pobursky - 2014-02-09
Ok. I've altered the template to show the url of the attached file so you can copy and paste into your post.

Great. Much easier now.
