Isn't it possible to check a cookie (that is refreshed when you login and/or change your prefences and that cookie will say whether or not pictures should be displayed.
SO then, each page you click checks the COOKIE (not the DB, saves query the database for pointless info on everypage) and then if there shouldn't be pics the page is created without the [ img] tags etc and if there should be pics it creates the page with the [ img] tags ...
Or is it not possible to change how the page is created before it's created ... if that makes sense.
