No Hotlinking of Images!!!!
This is to inform everyone that if we staff find anyone hotlinking image from other sites, that thread will be immediately deleted and the action will be taken against the member without any notification and chances are there that the member will be banned.
Hot-Linking Images in Forums: Since there are a few issues with hotlinking images from other sites- - Leeching: Everytime any member opens your Hotlinked thread - FE has to load the image from the parent site - so basically we are stealing their bandwidth every single time our members access your thread. While some sites allow this, others donot.
- Danger of Swapping: The original picture you Hotlink can be swapped or replaced by another inappropriate picture by the owner of the Image or the site you have hot-linked to, so instead of say the Uber cool scenery you wanted to show off, you might get another picture instead of it for example a Nude Picture on the page which you never intended to post as it is against the rules.
- Lastly, the page load times are affected and a few images cause the forum pages to be displayed incorrectly for a few members.

Host the images in the free imageshosting sites like
imageshack.us
imgx.org
tinypic.com
Photobucket.com
Supload.com etc..

Re: No Hotlinking of Images!!!!
You can use any free image hosts but they won't allow you to "Hotlink" full size images.
photobucket, tunypic are the only few relaible hosts that allow that.
Imagebam is the best for thumbs. Read this FAQ for more

Re: No Hotlinking of Images!!!!
Imageshack does allow you to upload full size pics. Photobucket has a size limitation on the free account.

Imageshack does allow you, but if your image is fullsized and the traffic is huge(quite huge) then they tend to ban domains also.

Re: No Hotlinking of Images!!!!
For comics right?
thats ok. Not much traffic for those images. Don't upload images on public forums there. Use tinypic.
