just for popped in my head so i tried.

postbit_display_complete

$search = 'img';
$replace = 'a';

$vbulletin->templatecache['postbit'] = preg_replace($search, $replace, $vbulletin->templatecache['postbit']);

seems like that should do something.... like replace all the images with links, but all it does is cause an infinite load -_-

seems postbit isnt cached in the hook i was using

using

$vbulletin->templatecache['postbit'] = str_replace('<img src=\"$post[avatarurl]', 'SHIT', $vbulletin->templatecache['postbit']);

in global gave me results. although i need some help to get the "whatever comes after doesnt matter" combination, been playing with it for hours and cant get it =/

example in red:

str_replace('<img src=\"$post[avatarurl]'\"*/>, ......

so everything in the img tag gets replaced.
