I thought about this just now as I was about to link a 751x76 image. Maximum image width on this forum is 640, and imageshack didn't want to give me a thumbnail due to the image's proportions. I briefly considered using the width property of the <img> tag, but since there's no good way of seeing the real image size in IE, I dismissed it.
Now ofcourse there's no way you could let posters script their own javascripts, but what if you put a few harmless generic scripts in the header, like toggleImgSize? If I had an image that was a little bigger than 640x480, I could write <img width="640" height="480" OnClick="toggleImgSize(this)">.
Naturally people could abuse it to change other images that have been resized, but censoring all variations of onload, *********** (edit: <-- just like that) etc. except onclick would limit the damage. Besides, it's not like you keep resized images as part of the TTLG layout.
Anyway, it was just a thought.
