UPDATE: The ability to copy/paste an image from another website into a CO thread/post has been re-enabled. Therefore, members can now copy an image from another website and paste that image directly into a thread/post.
There are a fair number of members who struggle with certain computer/PC features, and it's highly likely some members are unaware of how to copy/paste an image. I'll update the How To Post Pictures/Images sticky thread with screenshots/instructions members can easily follow to copy/paste images or create a separate sticky of how to copy/paste - whichever Eric thinks might be the most appropriate. This feature is a welcomed advantage.

 

It's never been disabled.
