Help me test the new drag-and-drop picture upload routine...

Someone on the other thread requested drag-and-drop for picture uploading, and I agree, it's something that should be supported. Please test and let me know how it works. So far, it seems to work well on everything, although my iPhone 5 is having some trouble for some reason.

-Wayne

It basically works dropping multiple images with Firefox running No Script...
I say "Basically" because I dropped images into two "Click here to Upload a Photo..." windows and the image from the first drop window disappeared from preview after the 2nd drop even the the IMG code is still there. (See image HTTP locations at bottom...)

See above, no good. Though I can see picture URL's. NOTE that I did something tricky. I actually tried with both a regular-sized file and a large size file, neither appear. BUt I can see the URL's when I edited this.

From some reason, when I drag and drop, it opens the picture on a completely new page. I am using google chrome, though

Using Chrome on OSX, doesn't work. The image shows in the drop box ... doesn't resolve in the post.



UPDATE: The image was greater than 2MB. I interpreted the X in the image thumbnail as a way to remove the picture before upload instead of an advisory that the image violated the rule.

I resized to 50% quality, the check mark appeared for this image.

I'm thinking my initial report of the first image previewing then disappearing wasn't accurate. I'm seeing it in the upload window and it gets the checkmark overlay then it adds the URL but the image isn't making it to the image folder for some reason. It is a 496x424 JPG of only 34k so there shouldn't be any issues. Trying it again with the same picture causes the same failure. The URL code is in this post.


- and this is the URL in the IMG code...

I'm emailing you the JPG so you can test.

That's exactly it Wayne. The upload is allowed to proceed while the thumbnail shows "X". After re-sizing, worked nicely!

Didn't work for me, running Win10/Firefox. The picture I loaded into the box appeared and had a check mark over it, but didn't appear when I posted.

This is great!!! I was having a hard time finding a decent image hosting site that didn't try to constantly spam me and trick me into clicking on pop-ups.
