Feature request: Adding images to your posts

When you want to add an image to your post, you have to put a link to images hosted somewhere else. I wanted to show images of problems I had with a PCB design. These were hosted at flickr.com and allthough I used the IMG tags here, they didn’t show up here, instead a link to the image was shown in the post.

It would be nice if it was possible to attach images to posts directly so they show up in the post.

File size might be the reason for not making this available in the past, but if you limit to a certain file size, it shouldn’t be much of a problem?

I just played around with it for a bit and found that you have to remove everything in the link from the question mark (?) to the end and it will display ok.

Thanks Bill!

In flickr, you can click on an image and than only the image was shown. I used that link in my posts, but that didn’t work.

I am using Firefox as my browser and with this browser it is possible to right-click on an image and then select ‘View image’. The link to the picture is shown in the image, you just have to remove everything behind the ‘?’, just like you said.
