[Theforum] Evolt picture database

[aardvark]

as it stands now, we filch the image inserted into articles and put
them in the user directory associated with that user...  that way, if
the author's host goes away, the images stay...

as for the rest of your suggestions, i'll let someone more capable
than i address them...
