Because do you know what BB code stands for?It stands for Bulletin Board code.As in its made for forums,not comments.URLs are automatically linked,and if they allowed images to be posted then that could lead to tons of issues,such as lagging.
Well I don't think you can only make certain BB code available.If you make one BB code usable on something,then you have to make all of them usable.At least I think that's the deal.
I am actually sure why this is not allowed. However, it could be because people could bold comments, to make them look as if they have been merited. But as to what the real reason is, I don't know.
really?I never bothered trying.I always assumed that you couldn't though.I will keep that in mind from now on.The reason is that images can lag down a persons browser,and so I thought it would be a bad idea to allow.
well I am assuming too many images on one page because doesn't each page technically have a different link so it wouldn't really lag or spam someone's browser? if I am understanding what your saying.
You mean the actual image or a link to that image? Anywho, BB Code would've been cool if you could use it selectively (i.e. only italics, underline, etc. NO bold and NO text increase) -- although, I feel the comments are doing already just looking plain, ain't nothing wrong with simplicity :P
