Looking for an image addon (description inside)

[taydin]

I'm looking for an add-on that will accept the URL of an external image, then put it into a local directory of my dedicated server, and then put an IMG bbcode with the local server URL. So for example, given this external URL image:

http://somedomain.com/pictures/pic.jpg

The addon will put this into

http://mydomain.com/images/pic.jpg

and then insert into the post:

[IMG]http://mydomain.com/images/pic.jpg[/IMG]

I know that there are addons that will convert the image into an attachment, but I'd rather stay away from attachments. Using a locally stored image and IMG seems to be more transparent to me and easier to maintain.

I hope there is such an image addon (paid or free)

That's pretty much exactly what the image proxy system does.

Oh ok, forgive my ignorance I guess I should take some time to read the manual.

Thank you very much!
