Hey everyone!
One of the most common questions on this site... well, aside from "what morph is my beardie?", is the question of "how to post pictures?!"
Posting pictures was always a bit of a painful process. You would first have to go to another website (like Photobucket), create an account there, upload your picture, and then figure out what the right URL/link is for the image, and THEN come back to this site to post the image using the tags.
But now you can upload images right here on BeardedDragon.org! Over the past few weeks, I've put in some time to develop our very own User Image Upload Manager!

This goes beyond just having a picture to share. There's also a new [XIMG] tag that I use to enable some more advanced functionality. For example, click on the image above. Don't worry, it won't take you away from this post yet. Images uploaded using the new manager are supported with this new tag.
Even better, if you use the XIMG button on the posting page, it will create an in-page pop-up of your uploaded images. Selecting the thumbnail will result in inserting the correct XIMG code wherever your cursor is on your post.

In fact, I used this functionality for this post!
For now, I still consider this feature in "Beta" mode. This just means that there may be some bugs and such. I will try not to mess anything up, but it is possible that images you upload may get removed by mistake (I promise I will try to avoid this), while in Beta mode.
Also, I am planning future updates to this feature. While I already have some ideas (like in-page upload from a post page, actually integrating it into the Visitor Photo Album, and browsing/sharing your uploads with other members), I do want to hear your feedback and ideas for little enhancements to the feature!
So, please check it out!

Use it... and let me know how it goes.
By the way, feedback, problems with it, etc... please reply on this thread to let me know.
Cheers!
