Implemented Image proxy: Exclude domains

[CTXMedia]

On CycleChat our members use ticker images in their signatures to show the mileage they've cycled this year; but with the image proxy enabled for a long period they are not going to update in a useful way.

I'd like to suggest an option to exclude domains from the image proxy so that any images from these domains are not cached in the proxy and load on request from the original location.

Cheers,
Shaun

Create a [TICKER] bbcode that essentially just does the same thing as IMG.

So the proxy is triggered by [IMG] tags?

Interesting idea. Thanks. I don't suppose you'd be able to tell me how to create a BBCode that would mimic IMG tags? (I've not really played with BBCodes in XF, sorry).

Just replace the content with the img element. I'm on mobile so don't wanna type it out. Not a "solution" to your suggestion, but an easy workaround that should work.

For a completely different reason, I'd like to exclude images that start with "https://c2.staticflickr.com/" or "https://farm6.staticflickr.com/" from the image proxy. Is there any simple way to do this? Flickr can serve these images faster than my server can.
