Ok. I couldn't remember.

The President of the United States

I typed the text. The picture is "linked" to the White House web site. When you see it your computor is accessing the White House site were it's stored, not FR. It's "name" is http://www.whitehouse.gov/president/images/400-P24420-09a.jpg width=300>

If someone at the White House, or a hacker, substituted a picture of President Clinton with the same name, 400-P24420-09a.jpg, when your computor went to the White House site it would retrieve the pic of bubba, not GWB. That's what happened here when the pics were "swapped".

I've had posted pics swapped like that before. Personally if I ran a website I wouldn't use pornography if hotlinking irritated me, but if I did, and my site was linked to an incident like the one on FR, I think it makes perfect sense to come here and explain it.
