I can attach pictures to messages using HotdogEd Point system. It shows a weblink to the file server. But it is related to what I am talking about. 

For example I've attached photos of plants I'm growing or planters I'm making from discarded items in HOME_N_GRDN.  

Or if I post an article or a blurb about a book that interests me, I'll include the link to the source so that people can read it for themselves.

I wouldn't think there is a problem with that, or at least no one has said anything to me about it so far.

But I do understand about the photos/links with no context.
