Description

It seems to me that there should be a place WITHIN Moodle where all teachers can to upload images and link to them – kind of like site files, but accessible to teachers. I don't quite understand the idea of having store items outside of Moodle to make them available to quizzes – which is the common advice given to newbies in the forums. Why can't there be one area, within Moodle, that allows teachers (who do not have admin privileges to create site files) to link to images without having to utilize some external solution which may not even be feasible for many teachers? This issue comes up almost daily in the forums, which should be evidence that this is a rather large flaw that needs to be addressed.

This should be finally possible with the new file picker and repositories.
Thanks for the report.
