This seems to be something lacking in most news
scripts out there: the ability to upload an image and
optionally place it somewhere in the post. I found one
script that does this, places your image by default in the
upper left of the full story text. Most news posters will
have an image on their hard drive and not at a URL...

Thanks

    HOLY CRAP YES! This would be such a wonderful feature
    and would totally make me want to register this script.

    It is possible because I have an .asp forum script (snitz.com)
    that has a modification to it that allows users to upload a file
    from their hard drive and if it is a .jpg,.gif.etc.. it displays it.

    So a simple upload button that allows the news poster to
    either enter in a URL of the image or (more importantly)
    browse their hard drive for the image and upload it to a
    specific sub directory then have some formatting bullets
    left/center/right top/center/bottom or something.
    Once submit is hit, the app will upload it and post the pic!
    Maybe even get crazy with this feature and have an automatic
    resizing option where the poster can specify the size in width
    and height of the image so it fits nice.

    Shouldn't be that difficult to someone who knows what they
    are doing.
