Image capture and file upload in a survey

Hi all,

I am another Inquisit newbie, so apologies if the answer has been posted previously, but I'm trying to design an online qualitative survey that allows participants to upload an image file and/or take a photo on their camera and upload it.    To be clear, I want participants to draw a picture and upload or take a photo of it, so it is captured as rich data in the survey.

Many thanks
Chris

I don't think that's possible using Inquisit at present. For this particular purpose, you'd be better served by a classic web-survey tool like Qualtrics or SurveyMonkey:

If there are RT tasks you wish to administer via Inquisit Web in addition to the qualitative survey, Inquisit Web offers interoperability with web-based survey platforms like the above.
