I am using Beejive "3.0". What is the difference between the file send methods "post a link" and "direct send preferred", found under Settings for Beejive? Both seem to work with sending a photo from my photo library, but I cannot find documentation on this setting.

If using "send a link" it uploads it to beejives servers and send the recipient a link to the picture. Direct IM connects to the recipient and posts the picture directly in their chat windows. Sometimes Direct IM can't connect though so that can be a problem. Or if the recipients chat program can't do Direct IM, like if they are on Meebo or Aim Express.
