I don't really see the big deal... seems a lot of people would like to see this addition to the board.... at least let it be an option one can turn on or off per usergroup.

anyhoo, just my 2 cents... :ermm:

good point that being the case, you may be able to make the mod where it processes it via the bbcodeparse function, that way any security checks vB do for [img] would be carried out for your off-site avatars
