   And uploading a file to another, completely unrelated server is better ? :-p   
      
   But yes, people would need to be aware that responding to the post with the   
   attachment would do little good.  Just like an uploader would need to be   
   aware that file servers have their own rules and hurdles (cough, javascript,   
   cough) for anyone wanting to take a peek at their upload.

   Thats the same problem as with those image/file servers.   
      
   I could imagine prefixing the name of image with the subject of the thread   
   its referred from.    Perhaps with the posters name appended.   Or even just   
   the posters name.
