The ability to upload photos comes at a nasty cost on other sites, as you’re forced to agree to all sorts of terms of use clauses. Embedding an image tag is slightly clumsier, but you retain control.
I’d hope eventually, that WT would allow you to choose your photo repo – eg. flickr, google images, 500px, iCloud – and the editor would then integrate with that, rather than duplicating your image.
Just gonna try one now… hope it works 🙂
Hmm – nope. Can’t get the post to submit while it has the image tag in it 🙁
