...and people resort to using abominations like Imageshack or Rapidshare way too often these days, I was thinking of adding some means of file upload to the board.

Now, as I don't have the time nor motivation to make both, the question is whether we should go for a post attachment system of sorts (with some limit on total file size uploaded per post) or a separate uploader (with a limit on individual file size, linked to board accounts, perhaps grouped into categories) which probably could be developed into a ROM hacking repository similar to the late acmlm.org project in the long run.

Please state your reasoning in the thread; some discussion on the subject wouldn't be a bad thing either.

I voted post attachments.

Because post attachments are useful.

Also, where's my disable bbcode

Last view: 61 days 		I voted for a seperate uploader because it would be more useful. I can image that some problems relating to deleted posts could arise if we we used the post attachment model.

Alternatively, we could use both.

Seperate uploader, because once the file is uploaded you can just do <a href="http://acmlm.kafuka.org/uploads/file.ext">Link</a> and poof, victoly.

Personally I hate post attachments. I'd much rather have a separate uploader.

Yeah, separate uploader sounds like a good idea. Then people who doesn´t have any place to upload their stuff could do that.

I don´t miss post attachments too much.

The Acmlm Commons was a failure.

Post attachments was a success.

Separate uploader because post attachments kinda suck.

And with that, some way of easily embedding attached images into the post, ie, not having to get the URL after they've been uploaded and editing it into the post.

Post Attachments would be very helpful, especially in the SMW Hacking forum. Instead of finding a website to host hacks, custom sprites or anything else, it would be a lot easier for others to download from us.

Yes, because they're so damn hard to find.

I always had the impression that the necessity to find a place to host one's hacks was one of the many high-pass filters that kept the worst kind of stupidity out of SMW hacking...

...maybe if we have more artists requesting it.

Actually, it's something I might look into, since it's fun to have and shouldn't strain the server too much. But I have to talk with blackhole89 first.

Last view: 6009 days 		I'd personally go with a separate uploader, because that makes it easier to search for certain files and it's simple enough to link to things manually in the post. Also, it seems pretty easy for individual posts to get lost in the shuffle which wouldn't happen with a separate uploader.
