I hope so too, as it sits right now it is only a matter of time before many of their users wind up in a very bad place thanks to Lizzer's “service”. I hope they make the needed changes.

I think your spot on here for the hotlinking directly to images. I know plenty of people who not only disable hotlinking on their own servers, but go so far as to serve a completely different image to those who choose to hot link it.

Not to mention its poor form in the webmasters style to have images coming from lots of hosts...

As a photographer I would be furious if someone hot linked my images. The images I put on flickr are lower resolution and the ones people are free to use say so in the CC area.

Shame on Lizzer for not making their searches just search things are that usable by the public under CC from flickr.

Hopefully they will make some changes.
