re-uploading images, not users, I hope!

| Aug 22, 2011 at 14:47 | comment | added | Gareth | @Tom that's the point though - I've come across posts where they've just added a link like that, and it's obviously better to add the image inline. It's not impossible to automate that, but definitely a bit tricky! | |

@nhinkle: Yeah, best solution I can come up with, given that there are those odd images (you could however filter /flair/) that might be dynamically updated; but I doubt if posts containing such images are really of any use...

| Aug 22, 2011 at 14:14 | comment | added | nhinkle Mod | I think implementing the Interesting tab would be a good solution for this. I do not think that a batch operation would be good. There are times when you don't want the image uploaded - for example, SE flair - where the image might change, and you want it to change if it does. Uploading the image statically would break that. | |

| Aug 22, 2011 at 13:59 | comment | added | slhck | I know, but it wouldn't solve the problem, so you'd have to go through these manually. | |
| Aug 22, 2011 at 13:57 | comment | added | Tamara Wijsman | @slhck: That's simply a check on whether the URL ends with the right extension or not. | |
| Aug 22, 2011 at 13:54 | comment | added | slhck | You're going to run into problems where images don't link to an image per se, but rather a HTML site that displays them. Quite a number of those "cheap" uploading services did (or still do) that. | |
