Upcoming Small Change to Image Submit Form

Hey mods,

Just wanted to give you a quick preview of a change we’re going to be rolling out in 2-3 days. After receiving feedback from users about the image submission flow we’re making some minor tweaks to it.

It’ll now look like this: /img/62tikugu7nbx.png

In the past it wasn’t obvious that users are able to submit an image via drag and drop. This change makes that clearer. (Pro tip: if you're on Google Chrome, you can also paste an image, even now!)

We’ve checked a bunch of subreddits CSS and none seem negatively affected, but we wanted to overcommunicate. This would be a little tricky to roll out under a feature flag or in beta, so we can spot check your subreddit’s CSS for you on our end if you like, just leave a message in the comments.

We’ll post to /r/changelog when it rolls out - as an overabundance of caution you’ll probably want to check your subreddit CSS on your submit page if you’ve made any custom tweaks to it.

Thanks, and any feedback welcome!

It looks like it might be a little broken, but there's an easy way to fix it - you can hide #image-field.

I just pushed out a change so you can now disable image uploads/links for any subreddit, so check out the "allow image uploads and links to image hosting sites" in your subreddit settings.
