If you have thousands of images it is next to impossible to find an previously uploaded image in order to re-use it in a different article to the one that originally used it. You need to go though hundreds of pages.

Has anyone found a way to do thing (you know the attachment number from the article originally written, you just cannot make it an attachment in the new article.

If you know the id you can use this url in IMG bbcode tags:
https://domain.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1300135

Yeah, i do that, but that does not provide the functionality of the native image

I did mention it to vB at the time that it would be a nightmare to re-use images, but they would not listen. Sad
