  Hi there,
  The vast and overwhelming majority of all so-called information on the internet is spam. And our reality is that over 80% of all so-called comments submitted to .wordpress.com blogs every day are spam. Spam comes in waves. There are human beings who get paid to post spam. There are robotic programs that post spam. The worst of all spam containing malware and viruses is not sent to us. It’s removed as it could bring down many blogs if opened.

  Provided your followers post URLs to images and PDFs that are hosted by a server somewhere online into their comments, then you can approve and display them. http://en.support.wordpress.com/comments/embeds/

  Note that you can create official blog users. You can invite others to be Authors and they can upload images into their own posts.

  Commenters can provide image URLs and PDFs and the Admin of the blog can choose whether or not to moderate the comments with the images in them. See here also http://en.support.wordpress.com/comments/embeds/
