Why no inline images

[silent tone]

Why have these never been allowed here? Is it out of fear that image and storage hosts would have a backlash against AT sucking their BW? Anyway, a lot of other forums have it, and I'd like to see it here.

I wouldnt want to see it.
When images were enabled for a short time last time virtually every post you went into was filled various miscellaneous images posted for no reason.

I figure if someone wants to show us an image they can link to it... that way we get the choice of whether we want to view it or not.
I pity those that were on dial up when images were enabled last time...

'Cause it's annoying..nuff said.

Yeah, what they said! And another thing, it makes the forum look messy, less professional.

Whereas an ASCII Bart Simpson screams "business"

But seriously, I'm extremely content with having images linked to. Then the poor guy running on a 28.8 isn't forced to either disable his images or wait the hour and a half for the uber-thread to download.
