var someString = "http://example/uploads/files/full/images/image.png";
var path = someString.match(/https?:\/\/example\/(.+)$/)[1];

http://jsfiddle.net/Squeegy/QwHsC/

// matches http or https
https?

// matches :// since you have to escape slashes
:\/\/

// matches the domain name
example/

// captures the path all the way to the end of the string
(.+)$

If you want to use a more comprehensive library for this sort of thing in future (ie rather than constructing/requesting specific regexes as you need them), you could take a look at something like this:

In which case, 

parseUri("http://example/uploads/files/full/images/image.png").path

would return

uploads/files/full/images/image.png
