Is it really necessary to wait for 10 posts to be able to post a picture?

I was on a website where I had a real question, and it was a complete waste of time to get to 10. Can't that be turned down to something like 3 where when the third one is posted it automatically goes to a moderator for review for valid content and then approved for full status? that should be more than adequate to keep the spammers out.
