The way I'd like to see graphics implemented, is that each user would get a small file space on the Ihub server itself, and then only links to graphics on Ihub's server would be permitted as automatically displaying HTML. Links to any other site would have to be clicked on to display.
I'm really more concerned about the bandwidth and screen display space issues than I am about IP address logging. I didn't like the pics in the thread overview before, this is just one more reason not to like them.
