    Hi guys,

    In responsive design, which method do you think is better user experience for video and image files upload: using input type = file or drag and drop.

    Thank you,

    Input is supported on virtually ever device using any browser. Drag and drop is not consistently implement to standards specifications. That said, it really comes down to your user demographics. You need to find out what your user base prefers by experimenting and seeing what they would rather use. You might find you need to do it both ways depending on the device.

    Thanks for advice. Since that is not easy, I think I'm going to follow (copy) other websites like facebook, twitter and this forum :)
