There is no inbuilt feature and software solutions would be far over the top of this, maybe any product

ahhh okay... Hmm, maybe I'll get one of the support techs on live chat then. but stupid me, i ran that plugin and it started parsing/importing images from THIS MONTH.. cause i made it so they go into /attachments/2012/08/ ... and alot of images were going there... but when viewing threads.. it still showed or seemed to link to imagevenue.com anyway.. so i went and deleted the 2012/08 folders.. and now alot of the threads for this month aren't showing images at all. and plus it made the database HUGE... its like 78MB!!!

is there anyway to have this plugin import the images... but just have it to filesystem automatically? I didn't want to put all that load into database in first place. the disk space i need not worry about, its the database size that's issue. and now it's STILL 78MB.. >_<. and on top of it, alot of August's threads are image-less...

also... when viewing threads in advanced edit.. its like

[U R L="http://img156.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=79993_12708391_122_34lo.jpg"][I M G]http://footish.xxx/attachments/2012/08/376.jpg[/I MG ][/U RL ]

of course the attachments/2012/08/blahblah.jpg arent showing anything.. but still have the imagevenue.com thumbnail preview links.. is there to remove the external thumbnail preview links when parsing from get go? or.. have those imported too, not just the full image?
