Bandwidth theft is a big deal. If you host your own website you are allotted a certain amount of bandwidth a month and if you go over that amount you WILL be charged on a per megabyte basis. Whilst this is accepted for legitimate users of website why should the website owner pay for your use of the image. By all means copy the image (obtain permission first) and upload it to an image hosting service that allows hot linking. Most are free so there is no excuse for bandwidth theft. A quick search on google will yield loads of results for free photo hosting. http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=photo+host+hotlinking&btnG=Google+Search&meta= I Disagree with SB’s comment.
