Inline images are totally fine, sure. If they are way too big, e.g. they are so wide they mess up the rest of the page, moderators may remove them and may warn those who repeatedly post such images. But other than that, they are perfectly fine.

Your R/C website ROCKS! 
Photobucket is fine when the image will receive low traffic, but once the image hits a certain bandwidth, Photobucket kills access to it. It may not happen today or tomorrow, but a week from now all the images in a thread might turn into the "RED X." For those who access it after the images are gone, it really makes the whole situation confuesing.
When you actually upload it to RCTech, it won't disappear if to many people view the image.

TSR6 - Thanks for your opinion... but honestly I have never had a problem with Photobucket? I will admit I haven't used it as extensively as others have... but so far so good (at least on other websites).
I'm definitely
NOT a fan of Attached Thumbnails and I am glad that INLINE IMAGES are "totally fine" as futureal mentioned. 
What other Image Hosting sites do you recommend using if ever Photobucket does become problematic?
Thanks again!

From Meguiars Online, another forum I frequent - Here is why Photobucket is a waste of time (thread name)
I'm not saying you can't use it, but to me its not the preffered method.

The solution would have been to just turn off message bounce retrievals :P None-the-less, site is much faster on the cluster. Good job
