Is this really so? I thought there was an easier way to do this. Oh well. The headers are looking sweet now, grats Eos. [/color]

Considered and rejected for now.
Images are inline elements, what you've asked for would require them to always be treated as block elements, and would break the ability to scatter little images through your text, like the emoticons for those who want to use their own emoticons, or show pictures of character avatars, or all of Fiel's extraction images.
Creating an entirely new class of image and making everyone differentiate whether their image was one type or the other and then policing that would be a massive nuisance.
Making the post containers explicitly retain their dimensions is so far the practical option. Gigantic pictures aren't really a common area of focus for the site, the smaller icons and whatnot are far more prevalent.
