And in the long run, those images will be gone because Imagehosters don?t store images for life.

Using the attachment function for that might not be the nicest but it would make it easier for people to find a place to direct upload their images instead of first searching for a Public imagehosting site with direct links allowed.

Might be thinking about offering both, direct URLs like it is now, and also using a attached image in the thread. How about that ?

I can definitely attempt to add support for that.

What kind of options do you think should accompany it?

Quick draft of my thoughts:

Thumbnail Source
- URL Only
- Attachment Only
- If No URL, use Attachment

Any other options you can think of?
