How about only permitting images hosted at a site like flickr?

This would mean you'd have to create an account at flickr in order to be able to post images.

If you're going for the 'restricted domain' solution, could my website be allowed? I'm the only one who has FTP access, and I don't have any upload forms. I'd just host my images there. It's typeint.com, though I may put the images on a subdomain.

Yes, you can still link to the images you want to post.

you're just overkilling

but never mind, we've got antidote

Images should be allowed if they are hosted on the Scratch web site. For example:  http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?id=89551

you know, the project thumbnails etc... ^^

Wait... You can host images on here?

This.

No, he's using the project preview images. 

And, I agree with BoltBait - although I don't think we should allow any further image-hosting features than we already do (which are extremely limited).

You were right to disable images in posts for everyone. After all, EVERYONE on the forums was abusing them.

Erm, no. A couple of people were abusing them. There's a big difference.

Thank you Scratch Team, for making sure that this was removed rather than those helpful blocks that are always used to show scripts and not used for spam at all.

Hope this isn't too off topic, but I wonder what block spam would look like... 

when flag clicked
forever
go to [silvershine v]'s page
if <you like their projects>
think to yourself [that person must be really cool v]
else
think to yourself [that person must be really cool anyways v]
end

Guys, I think the original poster was being sarcastic.

I have never abused the Img tag ever! Btw how do you abuse tag? Swear in the pictures?

Yeah, and from what I heard, no mods were on when the image attacks broke out.

Yeah, he specifically planned it like that I believe.
