Habbo are Hotlinkers!

Naughty habbo, hotlinking from fansites are we? On the Hotel Manager competition, one of the images are hotlinked from Official Fansite YourHabbo - isn't it basic web designer etiquette not to hotlink? Read it and weap!

Habbo have the right to hotlink, after all, claiming images as your own can get your site closed down.

YourHabbo [my site, well, I'm still active on it] gave permission for Habbo to link the images.
We know about it. And, Habbo know about it - obviously.

Maybe YourHabbo stole them from Habbo Hotel..

Never thought of that did we.
