Why CAN'T I just paste an image to my post? [Edit: You can now-thanks]

Hi all,

I'll have more to say about the "reimagined" community forum later, but for now I want to ask:

During the "reimagining" - how come no-one "imagined" that users would want to paste pictures/illustration/diagrams/screendumps into their posts?

I mean, if I've copied a picture to the clipboard, and attempt to paste it into this post I see a big red message:

image.png

instead of the picture I was trying to paste.

Now pasting images is pretty fundamental, and many other forums allow this. But not Cisco!

So I'm calling on the Keepers of the Community Forum (@Tyler Langston) to make this simple addition. To allow images to be pasted inline. Or if you find this too hard, at the very least you could implement my suggestion from 2020.

Oh, and it would be really nice if you could get rid of that annoying red message that now appears EVERY TIME YOU PASTE ANYTHING after having pasted an image to your post via the Camera icon. I mean this one:

Forum Tips: 1. Paste images inline - don't attach. 2. Always mark helpful and correct answers, it helps others find what they need.
