Rhino you seem like a sensible guy, if we take away the ads then the forums looses money, and you have to remember JM is a business. Like it or not thats the way it is. Not lets keep things into perspective here :)

Like or not but that's what i am. ;)

From marketing and promoting stand point of view this site is doing one very lousy job. Ads to bring money don't have to be big - you can place few dozens of small instead that will bring you much more revenue than 1 large. If you need more info on the subject then I'd be glad to share. Also small ads could easily be spread arround so they don't take a major chunck o screen's real estate.

fyi: selling hot dogs will make you more hapy (money wise) then restaurant.

Unfortunately it was abused.

Abused, you mean the DoomSharp guys? If so, thats a pretty piss poor.... how many of the images were actually hosted on the server anyway? Surely an image hosted externally has no affect on server performance what so ever, which I think most of the images are?

This has nothing to do with server performance. I think Dglienma said it did, but I have no idea where that came from.

Perhaps vBulletin has a really inefficient BBCode to Image function. :p
