I think the issues discussed there have been ignored longer than any others facing this community. We're about to release the Guide to Mood Icons, which, like FAQs #6 and #97, should link to a separate FAQ on image hosting. Right now, the Guide links to FAQ #6 instead, and the two FAQs repeat each other in explaining the image hosting issue.

Anyway, this is a good opportunity for volunteers interested in image hosting and the IMG tag to do some writing.
