High-rep long-time users should be able to be trusted, I would think.
Maybe the soapbox should be excluded from image posting.
Implementing dimension and physical size restrictions, as well as number of images for a given message would be reasonable (and expected).

I still remember that sad night 15+ years ago when the Johnny Bravo image in my signature stopped working right after you added a check for div backgrounds.

I just wanted to mention that the reason being able to post images would be nice is that I wanted to post some teaser screen shots from an article series I'm in the middle of writing. Nothing nefarious.

And BTW, I'm probably one of the most trustworthy users you have (and that thought should probably scare the crap outa you).

Don't confuse high rep points with high value. 
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

By high value, I mean users that contribute to the site other than in the lounge/soapbox. Maybe a combination of criteria (platinum author, scholar, editor and organizer, plus a minimum count of articles submitted, q/a questions answered, and maybe even a minimum rep points value.

In the latest newsletter 'The Best Articles of August' were announced. However, the Survey Voting Form shows that voting ends on '22 Sep 2017'. As far as I can tell, the competition is still running. It is also still shown atop the CodeProject homepage.

This is a very big egg on my face. I thought it ended last week, and foolishly announced the winners last week.
I am very sorry about this. I will email the "winners" and apologize and explain the error, and announce the real winners this Friday.
Thanks,

There should be a law against Mondays.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I'd have just kept the current winners and closed the competition. But then you may be more of a Steve Harvey fan. "Still a great night"

Had a message which appeared completely blank - so you can't tell what is in there. Let it through, and edit the answer once posted, and it's full content is this:
<a href=""></a><a href=""></a><a href=""></a><a href=""></a><a href=""></a> But because the human readable part has no length, it doesn't get a yellow highlight in the spam detector.
Could we add a check for zero length human readable links, and encode & highlight the whole HTML tag instead? It would make the process a lot easier.

Are you thinking that if there was zero human readable text then I display as HTML encoded?
What if we had
Hi! <a href=""></a><a href=""></a><a href=""></a><a href=""></a><a href=""></a>
What if I presented a raw version as well as the HTML formatted version?
cheers

That would do it - but I was thinking of when the human readable portion of the <a> tag was zero length:
<a href="mysite.com"></a> To perhaps display as:
Hi! <a href="mysite.com"></a> My name is IdiotSpammer and I ...
But that's probably a lot more effort than the raw view for a small number of cases.

The question is from 2010. Good start
The guy posted identical solutions 4 and 5, so 5 should be a Repost.
But, solutions 4 and 5 are also an almost copy of solutions 2 and 3, in my opinion, I would have voted as an Abuse, but the option have disappeared.

The guy is gone very far:
In comment 1 "nice", he show appreciation for its own solution
In comment 2 "thanku", he thanks himself for the appreciation
Note that solution 3 is also a Repost of solution 2, but are from another guy.

Today new is now working as I would think it should.
And I didn't realize until now how much better that is.
