TDFC | Hotlinking [SECURITY]

[ This may or may not apply to Drawn, but Mako is here to say it if anyone doesn't know. ]

If you do not know what hotlinking is, hotlinking happens when someone puts an image from someone's site, but by using its web link directly.

Why is it bad?
It steals bandwidth, and the owner of the site needs to pay for that. It can also make the site lag.

However, it is not entirely sure that it can happen to Drawn too. Since you dont own Drawn (unless you're ClaytonR, and you're reading this) you cannot hotlink. Even if the chance of you hotlinking images without wanting to do harm to the owner of those images put in the site is low, it can still happen.

I might be crazy about this, but look, it can happen.

For example hotlinking is this: (). without the spaces. it is EXACTLY THE WAY OF PUTTING IMAGES IN DRAWN. so, now, since we do not know if we hotlinked, remove the images you put in Drawn.
