Is there any way to add a paste from the clipboard feature to the forums upload file feature? Particularly with images I'd like to be able to upload a copy'd imaged from a web page or my PC without having to go into image editing software to save it to a file for upload.
No it's not the same, it only places the link to the offsite image, it doesn't allow you to upload it to this site directly. If they external link disappears (they often do) you lose the image link. I'll just paste into my image editing software and save it, it's just slightly annoying.
