This is an excellent and useful mod. My kudos for your efforts.
If possible, I would love to see an addition whereby every IMG being linked to within a post were to automatically be imported into and hosted by the imagehost database.
As an example, I post news stories which I find, and add in the stories' images when present. Many news servers will eventually move or trash their stories which breaks the image links within my posts. To prevent that from happening I would need to first download the image to my PC, import it into the imagehost mod, mark it as public, and then copy the IMG BBcode for inclusion into my post. Ideally, there'd be a process which parses a new post for any non-forum-server IMG tag, auto-import it, auto-mark as public, and then auto-substitute for the new image's hosted URL. Perhaps it would be a new BBcode for auto-importing and hosting of non-forum-server images.
Would such an expansion of auto-hosting be feasible?
Update: Ah, I found the installation instructions under category D for "Quick Uploads".
