Media Integration

So, i've been hunting for some way of making is easier to add pictures and videos on here and i think i've found a solution... ish
There is now some code installed that allows you to simply paste the address of the media in the message box and it should display as an image or video or soundclip in the posted message
Now, for those of you that use Google chrome as your browser, this is made much easier by being able to right-click on an image and select 'copy image address'
To see how that works, having the image address of my facebook cover photo copied
shows
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid ... 263&type=3
and the web address of a flickr image
shows
https://www.flickr.com/photos/villadism ... xzm-6pPy9Y
Now, this does not work for every site, so if it doesn't, the image addresses will still need to have an [ img ] tag to display properly
This also means that you can also share video links directly into the site
like this youtube web address copied from the address bar
shows this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agB8CFd8m8w
It's not a perfect solution, but it should help those that have their images already uploaded to the likes of facebook share them here a little easier
