Uploading images to the site
Forum-Index → Suggestions → Uploading images to the siteI know people are probably thinking "What if the image is too big?" I think just like with the Avatar, only pictures up to a certain size can be uploaded. Another option would be to automatically resize it or automatically put the image in something like a spoiler box.
Also, sorry if this has been suggested before. I tried using the Search Bar, but couldn't come across anything.

This is a adoptable site and this thing isn't necessary here. PH is completely different from Facebook. Facebook is a type of site where we can meet people from around the world. It is generally meant for old people or adults.
Pokeheroes on the other hand is a adoptable site where you come to have fun. So, it is more than just Facebook.
Also, Riako want's to make this site different from others, not just copies of Facebook. And Riako is also working to make this site mobile friendly, so this will not be needed.
Ask me questions
Actually, I don't get where you're getting at with your argument. PH can be a type of site where people met others from around the world. I've met and talked to more new people here than Facebook, mainly because it's more friendly. And Riako has 'copied' Facebook a couple times with a few features, such as the Palpad. He even admitted that.
I'm a mobile phone user, and I find it really difficult to upload images.
@Pikablu: Implementing this in no way means you're copying Facebook in the first place. A large number of sites have this feature, and not just Facebook.
Moving forward to what you said, this does not violate the spirit of this site. PH still remains an adoptable site, and is a larger consideration than anything else, even this. It's just that people still (and why shouldn't) post images as a part of communication, so why not make it easier? Uploading an avatar is a process just like this, so can we remove the feature just bcoz it copies Facebook?
Sorry if anything sounds rude, I didn't intend to show rudeness, and was just explaining the point.
Marikot: Our second server has a lot of unused space and that space could be used for more than 10 Million Pictures (avg. size 1MB).
I also considered such a tool since the beginning of PokeHeroes - but back then we only had our main server which has already very limited storage size. Server 2 is a different type of server and it can store much more data.
