I always upload my stuff to imgur.com or imageshack.us. It saves forum attachment space, puts less stress on it, is more flexible, and uh... All I need to do is [img ]Direct URL to image[/img ].

this is supposed to be just a setting in the forum's preferences - look at my original post about my random generator topic in our German phpbb3 forum:

I find that imgur.com is best. You just anonymously upload an image and it gives you a forum link.

Dah, I should have done that instead of create a photobucket account. This looks more straight forward than Photobucket.

Yeah, who wants a whole lot of strange images floating around in their photo gallery?
I actually found the website through Muntoo. :twisted:

I have changed it so that it doesn't always show as a link but if I find people posting large amounts of big images, I will change it back.

In the Admin Controll Panel you can set a maximum hight/width for images. (Posting- Post settings - the last two points)
