Is there any service like this that allows hotlinking? Have you ever seen those web clique things? Well I wanted to host one but rather than having people save the images to their computer (which is a pain in the butt), I just want to give them a code that they paste on their side which is so much simpler. Is there any service or hosting service that allows this for free? Thanks.

No free host will allow this, because it causes their bandwidth to be used without displaying ads.

get a paid host you can get a good paid host for less than $5 a month in most cases less.

That might work, 3 images, none over 50k in size.

Yeah, and then when you're paying for the bandwidth your "clique" site is using, you'll see why the free hosts don't allow it.

Actually geocities doesn't allow hotlinking, and sphosting will most likely stop it soon. domainvalet.com allows it but I think they're having some financial problems. I have a hotlinking host, but the girl who's hosting me is a friend of mine so ;)
You can always ask her about it, her email is faith@carlsbad.ca, tell her I sent you, unless you pi** her off then forget you ever saw me hehe :D

Allowing people to hotlink your images will be easier on their side, yes, but think of all the bandwidth they'll eat up should your clique be wildly popular. I know of many people who pay for their hosting who forbid hotlinking of their link banners and ask that the images be saved and uploaded themselves. Bandwidth isn't exactly cheap. :/
