Currently, embedded pictures are allowed in many fora, unfortunately, OMNI & /PR are not included.
This is the TB motion adopted back in March, 2009 to allow embedded pictures in most fora.
In case you miss it, here are some old discussion threads on this issue over
TalkBoard Topics Forum:
Voting Complete - Motion Passed: To allow static images in many forums
UPDATE: Motion Failed: Allow static images (except in omni)
Proposal: Allow Photos in Forums Besides Trip Reports and Travel Photography?

If you want to advocate changes to current policy w/r/t embedded photos, you should try to lobby or raise the issues (with very good reasons) in
TB Topics Forum.
