I agree, embedding photos and videos is more attractive and more accessible than just posting a link that someone has to click on before they even have an idea of what it might be. I don't often do it, but I've wished for it here a couple of times, and I'm on a couple of other forums that use vBulletin software that allow it.

Would that take up significantly more server space? Perhaps that's why it's limited here since this is a free forum and all.
That, or maybe Jeff has been climbing mountains and racing triathlons and hasn't had time to make upgrades lately.

I would suggest sending a PM to 'administrator' and asking.

Yeah, ask Jeff. He's really helpful and replies quickly. (and thank you Jeff, for all you do!) Originally Posted by GLC1968
