well if anything an image usually ends with

(http:// http://www.blahblahblah.com/[b]blah.jpg[/b])

or

(http:// http://www.blahblahblah.com/[b]blah.gif[/b])

or

(http:// http://www.blahblahblah.com/[b]blah.bmp[/b])

Due to some creative abuse of the img BBCode which was diccovered by the authors of the forum software, images are currently restricted to the following extensions: jpg, jpeg, gif, png.  If the img tag doesn't end with that, and has anything else after it, it'll just be printed verbatim.  Reading up on the whys of this change, I do have to agree with it.  We can add additional extensions if needed, but I do have to concur with the developers on this adjustment: it makes sense.

Tech explanation of the why of the change:
Code: [Select]
[img]http://forumname.com/forum/login.php?logout=true[/img]

That little snippet in someone's img tag would just spit out a broken image tag, and also log the viewer out of the forum.  Not exactly a desirable effect.  This is just one of the tamer possibilities available, I can think of much more interesting end-results.
