Why can't you upload pictures onto Y! Answers anymore?

I took a several month hiatus on here and I came back a couple of weeks ago and found out that the upload option is no longer working.

    The past weeks uploading from your computer saved files is nonfunctional, no one can upload images from their saved files no matter what level.

    You can upload it to an image sharing site and add the link. You can upload the image to Flickr, they will most times

    allow you to have the image be seen.

    No one knows why for sure they stopped it or if it was intentional, but it sure cuts down on images we do not need to see.

    Before level 3 images on answers will just show as links. The links will not be live links until level 3.

    For a question you have to add it before submit.

    There was never an announcement but I believe that due to limited staff there is no way to make sure pictures are suitable for posting. Many changes are in the works including the moving of the Yahoo Products section out of Yahoo Answers.

    It's either a glitch or they stopped it.

    They removed it while they worked on the profiles.
