Individuals: First make an attempt to ask the owner if they mind you hot linking to their photo. If you can not reach them at least link to their site and give them credit for taking the photo. If they ask you to remove it please oblige the owner of the photo!

Those of us who use this feature have all been guilty of this, me included, but we must try to do a better job crediting owners of photos. Linking to pictures uses bandwidth that is not yours so please be polite about it..
Rant over!
