Why not use imgur instead?

Will that even work? Bitcointalk uses https:// for everything, and referrers are never passed when in secure mode like that. Or does imageshack try to scrape the thread and then authorize it? That would be unlikely and doubtful.

If someone posted image that's hosted on imageshack, it will be shown only if the requirement is met :
- It's not a direct link image (thumbnail will be shown without problem)
- If it's a direct link image, the visitor must use US / UK IP or the owner of the website already register the domain

Otherwise, visitors will get the frog image like this :


Since there're more than 8050 images
http://www.google.com/search?q=site:bitcointalk.org+imageshack

hosted on imageshack by bitcointak's user, it would be a wise move for the Administrator of this website to register bitcointalk.org domain here :
http://stream.imageshack.us/content.php?page=register_domain

Example of problem (if you're inside US / UK, use proxy / VPN from other country beside US and UK, you'll get the frog images) :
