Well I understand that our members want the Upload feature inbuilt in India-Forums and we tried to explore that option but there are a few challenges:
a) This takes a lot of server resources.
b) We wont be able to moderate the type of images due to volume that are being uploaded on the server and there can be copyright violations / obscene / defamatory images uploaded.
c) Some of the image uploads that I see on the forums has a very short shelf life like the screen caps and many wont be checking them after 3 months or so.
However while exploring alternatives I found another options that we can check is of having Plugins from popular Free Image Hosting providers so that uploading images is very convenient and at the same time wont take much of our resources.
Please let me know some good Free Image Hosting Providers which is convenient / fast and wont delete images if they have been inactive for long.
Regards,
