That will force new users to learn the rules of the forum/post a bit before even touching those threads and for abusers it's no longer worth their time to continue posting at that quality.
That's actually a fairly poor idea:
1) Eos's implementation only affects a few threads. Your implementation would affect the entire forum experience.
2) People who troll and have huge egos would just stop posting pictures. It wouldn't solve anything. There are already pic limitations in place (2MB), number of photos per post restrictions, and size restrictions to prevent images from bleeding out of the post divs.
3) The moderated queue is an already built-in feature of vBulletin. Your feature would require custom coding. I understand you don't know what resources are available.
The purpose of what Eos has done is to prevent certain users from posting in a thread. I don't understand how a limit for posting pictures achieves that.
