Upload photos from camera roll

  1. It's been on my head and a lot of people's mind that it would be easier to upload photos straight from the camera roll like on social media. It would be easier.

    There would be a camera icon on top of the keyboard and when you click it, it ask for access to your photos.

    Pros:
    •easy to upload photos
    •new players or people who don't know bb codes could use this I can use bb codes btw
    •Fast
    •could also upload gifs and videos

    Cons:
    •Players may post private pictures and/or dirty pictures
    •would probably cause too much spam and lag

    Thanks for reading if you don't support please give reasons!
    Thanks!!!
     
  2. Turtle.. Load one up from your camera right now.. Let's see what you're pushing for..
     
  3. Support. If they post bad pics, then they get consequences. There should be a limit though, like a certain number of pictures allowed per certain amount of time
    Ex. 10 pictures per day/ one every hour
    (To prevent spam)
     
  4. This is a phpbb forums, doubt that is even possible.
     
  5. This is a great idea, though I don't know if it could be implemented.
     
  6. Most certainly not. Unless someone is interested in spending hours upon hours for this person just to have a shortcut, this won't be implemented.
     
  7. Yes, it is definitely possible and extremely easy to implement. They will not do it, however.
     
  8. Forums are used by such a small minority and do not assist in profitability beside appeasing customers (unnecessarily because it's fine as it is); won't happen.
     
  9. Tell me this when you can code.
     
  10. Imagine how much would forums take to load. Now, only the chosen players by a divine force are the ones who aren't lazy or are smart enough to understand how to upload pictures actually upload them with no problemo. Deal with it

  11. You can work at mcdonalds and still be able to upload photos. The smart ones are the ones not wasting their time uploading photos.
     
  12. Can't you smell a joke?
     
  13. Photo bucket.
     
  14. I just did.
    That doesn't even have much to do with it, however. Phpbb natively has the ability to upload images as attachments and then insert them into posts. They simply didn't include it.
     
  15. I have this thing called a sense of humor, if there was humor. I would sense it

  17. The reason for bbcode images in forums:

    Let's say you upload a photo. This photo resides on Kaws servers and impacts server space speed. Also they are liable for each image on their files.

    IMG tags are used to load images from an external source where it doesn't reside on kaws servers.
