In 2008, the TB voted to test the use of images in 4 forums.

In 2009, the TB voted to allow images in all Miles and Points forums, Travel&Dining forums, Technical Services forums as well as all Community forums except the Special Interest travel forums.

In 2011, the TB voted to allow images in both OMNI and OMNI/PR.

The result of this is that images are allowed in every forum of FT except:

Special Interest Travel

• Disability Travel
• GLBT Travelers
• Group and Event Travel Planning
• Religious Travelers
• Travel Health and Fitness
• Travel with Children
• Travel with Pets
• Women Travelers

In 2012, when images are ubiquitous across IBBs and other social media, it seems quite anachronistic to me to single these forums out for image-less posting.

Before each of the TB votes above, members, and especially moderators, fretted that allowing images would create mayhem or otherwise hurt the FT experience. In every instance, the opposite has been true imho.

The TB has been discussing this issue over the weekend and I think it's time to turn on images in the remaining forums that do not allow it.

But rather than rushing to a motion, thought we should collect some poster input.
