if people are allowed to post copyrighted images to your bulletin
board, shouldn't you have some sort of password protection anyway?
negating that, i would do it with PHP and not Apache. rather than
simply serving up the file raw:
<img src="image.gif">
why not setup a php script to do URL referring blocking:
<img src="getFile.php?img=image.gif">
in the getFile.php file, you could check the referring URL, and then
present the file, or not. you would need to move the images out of
the web tree, though, so people couldn't bypass your script.
it sounds like you need to reconsider what you really want, though.
