I've installed an image hosting feature on the site, for those of you who wish to share pictures but can't upload their pictures anywhere else. You'll notice the Image Hosting link up top. That will drop down a menu. To upload an image click the Upload an image link. There, you'll see the limits, how many pictures you're allowed to upload, etc.
Then, after the photo is uploaded, you'll probably want to view it. So just click the View my images link under the upload form, or you can click the same link in the Image Hosting menu up top.
When you're viewing your image, there is a nifty little box that gives you a pre-made code to paste in your posts where you want the image to appear! So you don't have to bother messing around with the image tags or clicking the Image button! Just paste that code wherever you want the picture to appear.
Keep in mind that at this time this will not automatically resize your images, so if they're too big you'll get an error!
Note: While it is possible to host images here and use them elsewhere, I ask that you do not. This uses our resources and if you abuse them then this feature will have to go away. Thanks.
Here's a picture I uploaded using this new feature!
