    Old attachment took GR server space. This one doesnt... if it bothers you so much. USE IMAGESHACK, your not demanded to use the new upload feature :eek: Wow huh?

    well, i realy dont mind the uploader beacause i dont use it however i dont think the choice of uploader mods was very clever, this one sucks, you could consider getting a imageshack uploader in posts.

    We didn't randomly choose it; they are paying us to put it there. It helps pay for the server; if you don't like it..we're not forcing you to use it.

    i tryed using it to attach a image and i got confused. I dont know if i did it right or not but if there paying you and its not taking up your own space then why not use it

    I like the knew one because you can use it more than once after you upload it

    I doubt its pay-per-use, because they don't get any extra out of somebody uploading 1 image to uploading 50, it's just another means of advertising their site. But instead of an image, it's an actual service.

    I don't like it... because you can't have a direct link from it. It makes you click a thumbnail, and I hate thumbnails...

    i find it funny that this forum gives you the ability to upload stuff to the server and even links you to one where u can host your art not many other forums do this
    and you say it sucks it jus baffles me

    I like this one because it allows 2MB and Imageshack allows only 1024KB. But it still has thumbnails which I don't like grr :( .
