Topic: Exstension idea: Image Hosting Upload (Flickr Photobucket etc)
Hello. I've been playing around with the 1.3 RC today. I've been thinking it would be great if there was an extension for users to easily upload images to an off server hosting service, or services (for choice) like Flickr and Photobucket etc, then automatically place the image BBcode in the message body. It would be very handy.
I know Flickr has an API. I've also seen Photobucket upload widgets on Mac OS X etc. I'm not a programer, but I'd suspect it could be done quite easily.
Well that's my idea. Hope that sparks some discussion and perhaps development.

Another hosting service to consider is bayimg: http://bayimg.com/
It's from the same folks that bring you PirateBay, so there's no problems with reaching bandwidth limits or images not accepted for not being up to standards.

Bay IMG rocks, i had no idea it was by the Pirate Bay.
(Something funny on the side, go and look at the Pirate Bay legal appeals... FUNNY!)

Well glad you all like the idea. Hopefully someone wants to code it eventually.
