Hi Geoff,
Often wondered why a forum that has the facilities to import photos (and even videos) from the tool bar above (when creating a post) has to use third party websites in order to 'import' their pictures?
It's always occurred to me that that's why so many people have so much difficulty in posting pictures and often end up with just thumnails!
Is there a particular reason for this? (Just curious...:)).

Free image hosting sites are easy to use. ImgBB for instance is very simple and does not require an account. I don't see a problem.
I don't see a particular problem now either, but it did take me some time to find my way round how to use a third party site for the publication of photos. I just don't understand why a third party is required at all when the forum site is capable of inserting the images without their use?? In the case of AoS, the facility must be 'turned off' (?) and that's why so many individuals end up posting thumnails.
It's fairly obvious that quite a number of people do not find image hosting sites easy to use, or there wouldn't be so many requests from yourself (and other admins) to alter advert posts and provide help to resolve issues.
Just saying.

its always been this way, probably costs as reason, but you'll need to await the owner returning to get a definative answer.
