A List Apart has published a new article on how to prevent hotlinking of your images with some easy php and mod_rewrites. The advantage of the method brought by ALA is that you can disallow embedding but still allow linking and also redirecting them to customised gallery pages for direct linkers.
Note that you’d require an Apache server capable of running PHP, with mod_rewrite enabled.
Will implement it even though I don’t think people hotlink my images.
