Folks,
Ask and you shall receive. We have released a mobile feature which allows users to directly upload a photo from their iPhone/Droid straight to a message board post.
For iPhone users, this feature will require the download of iOS 6. If you have iOS 5, the links will be grayed out. To download iOS 6 go to “Settings”, “General”, “Software Upgrade” and then complete the upgrade. In addition, we’ll initially have a 3 MB size limit on photos.
This is a feature many of you have asked about - ask and you shall receive.
I think I'll start a photo upload test thread so you guys can get the hang of it and work out the kinks. Please make all photos "appropriate" and continue to keep posts and pics within board rules.
Thanks!
Go America! Go Reds!

For curiosity's sake, where are the board guidelines for "appropriate" postings? Also, is there a different standard for posting a pic as opposed to what we put in our sigs? Enquiring minds want to know!

Breaking these rules may lead to a blacklist/ban or global ban (that means you cannot read posts on other 247Sports sites too). Length of penalty may be anywhere from 5 minutes to eternity.
1. No offensive language or images (swear words/cuss words, sexist, racist, religious) - including variations of offensive language with different spellings or letters omitted, etc.
2. No personal attacks/name-calling of anyone - coaches, players, employees, fellow posters, recruits, etc. If there is a poster or posters you find annoying or don't want to read, use the ignore function.
3. No posting of copyrighted material from this network or any other entity. However, posting of Omaha World-Herald editorial content is permitted if attribution is given.
4. No pornographic or obscene photos in avatars, posts, or signature files. Also, please don't link to this type of material or suggest to others where to find such material
5. No posting of any type of content that could be libelous
6. Don't spam the board
7. Don’t use the board to communicate with one or just a few select users - that is what private messaging is for.
8. No commercial offers or solicitation of business or Internet traffic
9. No posting of information that is fabricated or known to be false
10. No "trolling" and/or being a disruptive force on the boards
11. No posting threads of a highly sexual nature.
12. Violating any of these rules could lead to a post and/or entire thread being edited or deleted. It could also lead to the user being blacklisted or banned.

I was really just looking for the link to where that info was on the board, but I'm super impressed you had all that memorized, Kevin!

From the research I have done, seems like Android verions 2.2 and up support this feature. Do you know what version Android your phone is running?
