    I don't really use reddit. I do (rarely but) sometimes see links to reddit on my twitter stream. Are all the ylyl photos from reddit? Never really saw a ylyl photo showing up in twitter first though.

    It depends what you mean by "from Reddit." If you mean people seeing them there and using that link, then yes, a lot of them are, Reddit is the dumping ground for a ton of content online. If you mean originally from Reddit then usually not, Reddit is more where is stuff is reposted than is created usually.

    Ah :-) Well I like to browse the Cool Vids & Pics & Links board. Not sure I want to join up to reddit to try and find posts made on that board just to share them. There's also the photoshop competition posts. I'd guessed that most of those are made by boards.ie users.

    Just right click, copy image url and post it wherever ya want. Its what everyone does anyway. And you can even use the facebook/twitter share buttons for handiness. Just replace the url with the one of the image and name it.

    That's similar to what I do :)

    I like to attribute boards.ie as my source so I copy the link to the individual post

    IIRC when this was suggested a couple of years ago feedback was generally negative. I suppose with Facebook and Twitter log ins to other sites they've just become the norm on the web 2 or 3 years later. I block them and Facebook widgets on other sites, just a waste of bandwidth for me.

    • There used to be a section below a thread and above the quick reply with Sharing buttons to outdated sharing sites like StumbleUpon, Digg, Delicious etc - I liked that the sharing options were kept to one section, clearly labelled. The placement of them was horrendous which is why they were never used but perhaps a compromise can be found? As a rudimentary suggestion - create a dropdown beside "Thread Tools" in the top post of a thread called Sharing Options. It could have a merger of the FB/Twitter logos if you desire a visual element to attract the eye. Over time you may want to add more

    Good point, probably makes more sense to have them at the end of the page, rather than scrolling up to link them. Those bookmark links are still there on the older skins if I'm right.

    I can't delete posts from feedback, it must be caused by the data migration permissions now that we've partly warehoused for the shift.

    I have absolutely no idea what this is but can't wait! Will it be an entirely new entity or will it be an extension to boards? Why not wait to add the new twitter buttons along with faceboards?

    Would've been nice if we were asked, but sure fire away.

    1922 = nineteen hundred & twenty two hours = 7.22pm

    Gordon, who let the dogs out? page 19, section 22 of the NDA : Punishment for early disclosure shall be the lesser of 722 brdscoins or an "extreme" wedgie.

    Hey, I can't delete it and I've notified the board so we should be fine. However, I really don't think the brdscoins has been cleared for media yet has it?
