If you use the visual studio plugin provided along with the free trial of VS, you can shave off kb's from images without changing the file extension and after that then yes, you most certainly can use sprites.

well said. Yes, true CDN is going to be the 1st choice for anyone who wants to pay, but CloudeFlare offers a free subscription, which is good to start with. I believe they are decent to some level. I might consider their paid service near future.
For sprites, the story is very long and it depends on how you divide your css to many or only one file. if one file then taking all images in consideration to use only one sprite would take long time especially if your forum is full of custom images...
