Adrian Long, 41, was today jailed for a year and ordered to sign the sex offender's register for ten years for his latest child porn offences.
Long, of Burleigh, Stroud, had pleaded guilty at an earlier hearing to two offences of making and possessing indecent images of children on his computer.
He was sentenced to a year's imprisonment by Judge Martin Picton - minus the 153 days he has been in custody awaiting the hearing.

The judge also imposed a stringent Sexual Offences Prevention Order on Long, barring him from having a computer and using the internet.
Julian Kesner, Crown prosecutor, did not relate the facts of the offences in any detail after Judge Martin Picton told him he had already seen the indecent images and read the case papers.
The offences came to light, Mr Kesner said, after police raided Long's home following his refusal to let them in under the conditions of an earlier sexual offences prevention order.
Indecent images of children were found on Long's computer although most of them were of the least serious category One, Mr Kesner said. Other computer equipment and disks were also found.
The charges Long admitted were making an indecent Grade 2 image photograph of a child on November 7 last year and possessing 62 indecent photographs on April 29th last year.
Fifty four of them were level one, four were level two and four were level three.
A further four similar charges that Long denied were not proceeded with by the Crown and were left on the court file.
As well as concurrent jail terms of 12 months and nine months for the two offences, Long was also sentenced to five days in jail for breaching the terms of his last Sexual Offences Prevention Order (SOPO) and he was made the subject of a new order, including a ban on him using the internet.
A forfeiture order was also made for all his computer equipment.
He was told he will have to sign the sex offender's register for the next ten years.
