Hotlinking, What it is and Why it Isn't Allowed. Any time you link in anyway directly to an image on someone else's site it is a hotlink. Read the post I linked you to for more information. As it says in there, if you want to share an image here you must first save it to your own computer, then upload it to Photobucket, Imageshack, tinypic (or any third party image hosting site of your choice). Then you can link to it here either by posting the url (if it is larger than 600 x 600) or by using the IMG codes for bulletin boards (most image hosting sites will give you that code).
