Bug Reports & Technical Issues |
I miss it sincerly!
I am sick of failed uploads, because my templates are too big / small.
At least have the best of both worlds, and have the option to direct
link, AND the option to upload. 256KB, is far too small! I prefer
direct-linking from Photobucket, because you can use decent sized
(templates, in my case), images. YouTube usually destroys the quality
of an image as well, if it reaches anywhere near 200KB.
Bring back direct linking!
