Hello,

Don't know if such a thing exists but something that I think would be really cool is if you could host pictures on your domain that integrates with VB. I know you can upload attachments but it's not quite the same is it.

Ideally what I would like is a button that brings up a pop up window when you're posting. It allows you to upload a picture that your site hosts and creates generated code

Or instead of yoursite hosting, all images could go to a central photobucket imgshack account.

What you think?

Although not technically part of vBulletin I use a free php script for users to upload images to a photo contest I used to hold. The page is still up at:
http://www.juot.net/forums/photocontest.php
and the script I customized is found at:
http://www.solitude.dk/filethingie/

This will let your users upload images (or any file types you allow) to your site, and you could even combine this with a custom bb code like I did so users just need to put in the filename between custom bb code that auto fills in the img tag and file path... I use and for Photo Contest Entry... as is it won't integrate into vB with all the features you want but it's something and free and available now.
