I haven't been around here for a while, so apologies if I missed something in my cursory search through the forum.
Suffice to say, is there an obvious option to allow users to upload images from their mobile device from within the forum/software itself?
I looked into self-hosting using Gallery a while ago (yeah, I know, it's "shuttered" now) because we've got the bandwidth and the space, but ultimately decided against it (plus, mobile uploads were never exactly easy with Gallery.) Plus, going from a 17GB (including OS and a few days of backups) footprint to, well, MUCH more) didn't appeal to the sys admin in me for the limited benefit.
(We're running 7.5.6, but upgrading isn't a huge issue. Yeah, I know, bugs, but it's just been chugging along once I chmodded the daylights out of things to get around the hacks we encountered early on...)
