DO NOT HOTLINK IMAGES. Reasons: #1 12. Do not hotlink images. Use a free host like Photobucket, Imageshack or Tinypic to host it. If we say don't do it, don't do it. We don't make erroneous rules for the hell of it. Listen to us and you'll save yourself a ban. #2 It's against ZetaBoards.com 's, ToS, Read here:
If you Hotlink images, you are ensuring that dbzf.co.uk is breaking the ToS, which could in return get this site shutdown. DO NOT DO IT. #3 Other sites that you hotlink from are capable of replacing the image at their own will or accord. This means that the picture you just posted of Goku from that site you found, could technically at any time they wish swap the picture out for pornography. Which is also against the ZetaBoards ToS. If this happens, your offense went from hotlinking to posting pornography which is an instant ban. Don't do it. #4 The site you post the picture from may be a malicious attack site. Unfortunately for you those sites don't automatically destroy your computer upon ping, causing you to not be able to take their pictures. So in return of your ignorance about malicious sites, you are causing other members of this community to have dbzf.co.uk blocked because you decided to hotlink a picture from that site. Example: Spoiler: click to toggle Causing other members to have a bad experience here is against our general rules and Zetaboard's rules. You will be warned for this. Don't be surprised about it. #5 On a less important note, but still a reason... Every time you hotlink an image from another site on this forum, it may get a couple hundred hits from our members. Even more if google or China decide to ping the hell out of it. This in return causes that site's bandwidth limits to become depleted, costing them money. You are in return stealing from that site, in a round-a-bout way. Stealing is bad. If you are caught Hotlinking, you will be warned for it. If you aren't warned for it, it's because a mod wasn't paying close enough attention. Occasionally I or another mod will go on streaks where we will view the source of every image we come across. Don't be surprised if you get a warning from it. If you haven't read our rules yet, now is a good time to get acquainted. They aren't very hard to follow, so there are no excuses.

Thank you for the reminder Engineer. Apologies for my previous offences with posting hotlinked images. Lately though, a lot of pictures have been used from potentially malicious sites, which is quite troublesome. |

You should of made the list with only 4 reasons lol. Anyway, I agree hotlinking usually only happens because of laziness and just the other day Rogue warned me about doing it, but that time I actually just forgot. I always try to keep an open tab with a site that uploads photo just because I don't want to accidentally do it and if you sometimes accidentally forget then I recommend you do the same! |

No, you can't. dA blocks hotlinking as far as I remember, I don't believe they have change their policy on that. If they don't give you a URL that says "Embed on Forum" or something similar, then they don't allow it, simple as that. |

I don't get why it's so easy if it's so bad... Right click. Copy image location. Back to forum. Click image. Paste URL. YOU HORRIBLE PERSON. Is it really hat bad? Not saying the rule shouldn't be enforced just is it like being Hitler of the internet or just not great? Because I've never seen anywhere else say it's bad, never even heard of the term before being on here. |
