You know how on Facebook, there's a camera button where you can
upload images from your computer onto Facebook? I think there
should be an option for that when making a thread, posting a reply
to a thread, and in the palpad.
I know people are probably thinking "What if the image is too big?"
I think just like with the Avatar, only pictures up to a certain
size can be uploaded. Another option would be to automatically
resize it or automatically put the image in something like a
spoiler box.
Also, sorry if this has been suggested before. I tried using the
Search Bar, but couldn't come across anything.
That's not as easy on a mobile device. And besides, I detest the
idea that we should use another site just to get pictures up onto
this site. I think it would be better and easier this way, not to
mention that there'd be no time limit for how long they can stay
(maybe) as opposed to sites like Ezimba.
Sorry, no support for this. I personally hate Facebook. And that
idea is... It just doesn't fit Pokeheroes, an adoptable site, that
is an unique one. If there qould be implemented all the suggestions
because other popular sites have this, it makes PH just another
site that copied the others. You can just link the image from
prntscr or photobucket.
Being an artist Id LOVE to have such a feature cause itd make my
life so much easier when updating threads and stuff - but honestly
I think that it'd make the server heavier. ouo Unless there's a way
to redirect those images onto another place to be stored (I dont
know much about this kinda stuff).
I like this idea actually I was about to suggest. I use pokeheroes
with phone so I don't have imagr or something like that so I have a
hard time posting picture
My favourite anime character 100% same personality with me
i fully support this idea.call me lazy but i hate having to upload
my images to tinypic and then getting the link,then using the url
or img bbcode and i use my phone a lot to go on PH
Sorry, No support....
This is a adoptable site and this thing isn't necessary here. PH is
completely different from Facebook. Facebook is a type of site
where we can meet people from around the world. It is generally
meant for old people or adults.
Pokeheroes on the other hand is a adoptable site where you come to
have fun. So, it is more than just Facebook.
Also, Riako want's to make this site different from others, not
just copies of Facebook. And Riako is also working to make this
site mobile friendly, so this will not be needed.
This isnt necessary for the game aspect of PH, but it'd be great
for the forum+Communications aspect of the site. That's basically
what this is for...
Actually, I don't get where you're getting at with your argument.
PH can be a type of site where people met others from around the
world. I've met and talked to more new people here than Facebook,
mainly because it's more friendly. And Riako has 'copied' Facebook
a couple times with a few features, such as the Palpad. He even
admitted that.
I'm a mobile phone user, and I find it really difficult to
upload images.
@Pikablu: Implementing this in no way means you're copying Facebook
in the first place. A large number of sites have this feature, and
not just Facebook.
Moving forward to what you said, this does not violate the spirit
of this site. PH still remains an adoptable site, and is a larger
consideration than anything else, even this. It's just that people
still (and why shouldn't) post images as a part of communication,
so why not make it easier? Uploading an avatar is a process just
like this, so can we remove the feature just bcoz it copies
Facebook?
Sorry if anything sounds rude, I didn't intend to show rudeness,
and was just explaining the point.
I don't understand the argument "We don't want to be like Facebook"
- because there are many many many sites that have image upload
services :b Most forums that I know have something like that where
you can upload and attach pictures to forum posts.
Marikot: Our second server has a lot of unused space and
that space could be used for more than 10 Million Pictures (avg.
size 1MB).
I also considered such a tool since the beginning of PokeHeroes -
but back then we only had our main server which has already very
limited storage size. Server 2 is a different type of server and it
can store much more data.
Exactly, Riako! I only used Facebook as an example because a huge
fraction of the human population uses it and it's popular as
compared to the forum sites, so it would be easier for people to
visualize the idea.
I don't know how come I didn't support this just yet - but you have
my full support on this one! I find it so useful on other sites
where you can just skip whole url process and just add a picture
easier without uploading it to another site first :o
