Hell, even hackaday could or at least use the distributed caching of nyud.net automatically instead of direct links. Just because people are hackers doesn’t mean they understand web hosting.

You can then grab the actual location of the picture. Since he used geocities for hosting the pics, if more than two people look at the site over a span of a month it’ll stop access because he’s used too much bandwidth.
