@Cre8tive & susieq:

The site has been meeting bandwith limitations, not space limitations.
Pictures in old threads don't contribute to bandwith consumption, unless some member visits that old post, which is an invaluable asset IMHO.
So, there shouldn't be any problem there.

@Cre8tive:
You could visit the same post a thousand times, but your browser fetches the images just once. After that, it remains in the browser's local cache, unless the poster updates the picture, thus invalidating it and forcing your browser to reload. (Your browser just checks file dates/times to see if it needs reloading)

So, there's no problem here either.
