I see. I still don't quite get how that addresses zupreme's idea, which had nothing to do with displaying galleries. He was suggesting that instafilter implement a potential performance optimization by caching images as they come in, so the same operations (to the same images) could be more quickly returned from any subsequent calls to the API.
In terms of leveraging IMGUR for hosting and gallery capabilities, yes that would work if all you need is a place to dump original and filtered photos. But my impression was that this API would be used by apps that integrate images into their existing service (whatever it might be).
