I think maybe the only thing I would add is a way to update the default list in the ad block list. Though, I guess if the browser is updated pretty regularly, that's not a big deal. That is, assuming OG updates this list periodically.

1. Allow the import/export of filter sets so users can share. This should also allow you to merge other users filtersets with your own (and add a "rollback" feature as well in case you don't like the results). 2. When you select the filter image option from the contextual menu, it should present you with a sheet that allows you to edit the auto-created regex straight away so that you can reduce the specificity of the filter at point of entry (if you so choose) rather than post-addition. 3. Flash and other plug-ins should have their own filtering mechanism so that you can pick and choose which Flash to block/allow independently of images (e.g. you may wish to allow flash for a site, but not the ad images and vice versa). 4. The ability to block Flash or other plug-in content should also be an option obtainable through the same mechanism as 2. above. What would really put it head and shoulders above the rest would be a regex checker that would scan your ad block list for badly parsed filters and correct them for you.

I don't know what is your browser, for firefox you can download "adblock plus", add the filter rule as refered above. But for ie, "adblock pro" would be the best choice, you can right click to disable flash for each site.
