That is absolutely correct. I don't mind direct linking to anything
on the website. The bandwidth from direct linking is very small
compared with the overall traffic.
Specifically, the scan library is a community resource so
you should feel free to make whatever (legal) use of it you want. Direct
linking (for auctions, webpages, etc) is *encouraged* for the gallery, since
that helps more content find it's way into the gallery for others to browse.
You're borrowing bandwidth and in exchange I'm borrowing content.
