[suggestion] Add the ability to upload images in WebP format

Post by Jensen Head »

In the case of screenshots, this will allow you to reduce the size of images up to ten times, without compromising quality. Solid advantages for message senders, readers, and hosting owners.

Hello Jensen Head,

Do you mean the ability to upload WebP images here to the forums? I believe that all image formats that are not zipped will not be accepted, as we had some bots posting inappropriate images in the past.

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello Jensen Head,

It should now be possible. Our web devs have made some changes that should now permit the correct file name extension files to be added.

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello, Jensen Head

As far as I can see, it should be properly enabled now... testing:
