When you've got a social group and want to add a pic, it has to come from your album on this site, which is kind of inconvenient, but acceptable.


However, when you click on your album in your profile and choose "add pic to social group" it gives a message that tells you its an invalid pic.

You have to click on the pic, and copy the URL then go into the social groups , then add a pic, then paste the URL. Thats the only way I got it to work.

So it works..but not in all the ways that it say it does. Just a heads up.

1. This is default for various reasons, I'll not go into the technical explanation due to security concerns.

2. IN my opinion having MY pictures in MY photo album is hella more convenient that navigating to another picture host to get a pic I want to use. I understand if you feel differently.

This is unconfirmed. I just tried it with an ADMIN account, a MOD account and a n00b account, all worked with no issues.

Again unconfirmed .. it works AS intended for me.
