Recent Events have shown that a lot of people hotlink. A lot of people know that other people hot link, its no atomic secret.
However, everyone needs to get out of that habit. Its actually stealing bandwidth from those other people. Bandwidth can be EXTREMELY expensive!
www.photobucket.com is an awesome site that hosts images for you. Put images on photobucket and direct link from there. They are specifically set up for this kind of thing.
Please keep in mind that if you find a random image on google and put it on photobucket, that can still be considered stealing. Make sure you arent taking copyrighted pictures.
Hosters have been known to switch their images with disgusting inappropriate pictures so it appears that the other person hotlinking is taking a disgusting picture. Another reason why you dont hotlink. You may find yourself frozen because of that disgusting image.
So yes, please make sure you dont hotlink from other hosters.
