Right.  One of the core ideas of LUGNET is to build up over time a
comprehensive and integrated DB of everything, but another (and equally
important) core idea is to unite all user-created websites, including
helpful links to other related sites wherever appropriate.

While it is still difficult to track the origin of each image at this point
without the user identity system, it is a relatively easy thing to add a
link to Huw's PSD from any Pause/Lugnet set page displaying a promo set,
whether it was submitted by Huw from his site, or by someone else from his
site (with implicit permission), or a totally other unrelated third party.
Just as someday there will be links to all serious (formal) reviews of a
given set, or links to people selling or wanting to buy a given set.
Massive crossreferencing...
