It's already there, use the upload attachement (hotlink is bad)

Scaled image tags so large images fit into a forum post.

Use another theme. (in your user panel, there are several available).

New threads / forums have a icon saying "New" in white, others have "old" in grey.

The important threads are in the announcement section.

i know what stickies are.

when you enter the forum you see A LOT of threads in different categories (which are not seperated clearly...but that is not so much the problem here).

the only chance you have to see which threads are new is to look at the "last edited" date of each thread. this means you have to look through a dozen of threads until you find new ones.
the old forum style and layout made it much more clear which threads are stickies and are therefore long and/or important threads to read for newbies. these should be differentiated by color (e.g. a darker blue in the background), a totally different symbol in the front or have their own section called "important threads to read".

this way newbies can easily see which threads are important and experienced users can see where the stickie-threads end and where the new threads begin.

one more thing: when you are an experienced user (as we both are - you more than me), you know the forum. therefore you have no idea how the first impression is to a newbie. please ask a newbie and optimize according to his/her first impression!

Stickies are normal threads that are always on top of the list.

it is still hard to differentiate between sticky-threads and normal threads in the forum.

how about writing "Sticked"/"Sticky" in front of every sticky-thread or coloring it differently?

Great! I see it's being put to good use already in the 2012 tourney thread, I wanted it because I didn't want to see tournament results before the replay!
