Its very simple to post an image on a board and log the ip addys that view it. Though if the board is active you might be guessing whos who if the thread get allot of views. However if you send that image through pm message you know their ip right away. This is a security issue and a privacy concern for members on our site.
In the past when we had different sofware something was done to prevent this. When a member sent an image through pm message and logged it the image would show as being viewed on our server. Im guessing some sort of buffer was created or the image was actually hosted on the server itself. Were looking for a way to close this hole up and keep our members privacy from those keeping logs of images they host. Im sure there has to be a way to do this...
