Something along the lines of:

   function removeImgElement(string, ignore) {
     return string.replace(/<img.+?src=(["'])([^\1>]*)\1[^>]*>/gi,
       function(substring, qm, attributeValue) {
         return (attributeValue.indexOf(ignore) == -1) ? '' : substring;
       });
   }

Similarly:

   function removeImgElement(string, ignore) {
     if ((typeof ignore != 'object') || (ignore.constructor != Array))
       ignore = [String(ignore)];

     return string.replace(/<img.+?src=(["'])([^\1>]*)\1[^>]*>/gi,
       function(substring, qm, attributeValue) {
         for (var i = 0; i < ignore.length; i++)
           if (attributeValue.indexOf(ignore[i]) != -1)
             return substring;
         return '';
       });
   }

Hope that helps,
Mike
