The P2 1.1.5 by Automattic theme for WP has an upload/insert function right above the post to enable users to post pictures, videos, media, etc. I would like to add this on my buddypress site so my users can do the same. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, check out http://venturerate.com for an example. You must register and be logged in to make a post there. Can anyone help?

First, caution: am very new to this.
have put up a test site of p2 with buddy at http://ruby.de-nws.com/. (all entries sites etc to date have been put up by me) see first post.
to upload an image (example 2nd post a Vote It Up image)
1) press add an image then upload it first from, say, your computer. it goes to your media library in the p2 folder on your server
2) then repeat add an image –> media library –> insert into post.
BTW great site. How did you get Vote It Up to work like that ? Really impressive!
