Either goto: Tools -> Options and in Content tab uncheck the option Load Images. It'll block all images for all sites.

But if u want to block images from a particular site, then simply open the site and right-click on any image and select the option Block Images from xxxxx.com.

There is a Image Show Hide extension available at FF's website. Install it and you are done.

If you use Adblock, jus enter these filters

Code:
*.jp*g
*.png
*.gif
*.tif
*.bmp

I followed your second advice and disabled images from thinkdigit.com and ended up not being able reply to any message since along with the images the quote button also disappeared and then had to re-enable it by going to Tools>Options>Contents>Load Images>Exceptions.
