That's a total cop-out. Strawman, anyone?

HOTLINKING IS STEALING. Period. I don't have to start my own threads; I take issue with bandwidth thieves.

Obviously you have a problem accepting criticism (see the other comments here). I SAID it's a good thread, but HOTLINKING IS STEALING.

Quit acting like you just found the internets yesterday. It's something everyone knows is wrong.

I'm sure losing pictures is annoying, but I can assure you, it IS NOT as annoying as having to pay for excess bandwidth consumption. If you had your own site and people hotlinked from it, you'd be hella pissed off too.

And if Sondra mailed you a LINK, then post the LINK. Don't hotlink images. I'm a blogger too, and I know exactly what sending a link is about, and it's NOT an invitation to steal bandwidth.
