When will ar15.com come up to date with the posting picture procedure? It's a pain in the ass to post pics. Make the procedure as easy as Craigslists.

the issue is that ARFCOM, as a platform, was developed for desktop users, not mobile users.

craiglist is simple compared to ARFCOM.

and the pictures on craigslist "expire" when the item is sold or listing deleted.

how long should ARFCOM keep your pictures?

who is paying for that storage and backup?

so start a website.  store everyone's pictures.  get a full time person to handle DMCA takedown requests for the pictures your users "borrowed" and you stored.  get a lawyer to handle the "hi LEOs" situation for the inevitable child pornography that someone is going to post.   if you thought AROCK was a problem...

Non members should not complain using Arfcom site for free.

Edit - Just download Imgur app on phone. Takes an extra step and another few seconds to download and copy/paste code.

Ar15.com does not host images.  It only allows you to link to them.

So really, the issue is not being able to upload via phone, hell I do it all the time on my phone.  I upload to my photo hosting account and link from there.

The logistics of being able to handle the server load of a essentially a text-based service to a photo hosting server is unbelievable.

But you can help them get started by becoming a team member and contributing $24.
