Description

Problem or Use Case

Currently there is no indication that an image is present in the message, as seen here: https://discord.com/channels/476211979464343552/1410696674858504363/1410696674858504363
This can cause us to miss important information from the original messenger

Proposed Solution

Post the images in the discord thread, or indicate an image is present in the original message (either with the address to the image or some text indicator). Example:

Hello DevComp, please demote this achievement because it is bad
https://i.imgur.com/RA1MG.png

or

Hello DevComp, please demote this achievement because it is bad
< IMAGE >
