Default Hotlinks automatically attach photos?

So pretty much what it says, I use photobucket to hotlink my photos so as not to burden your servers but I'm seeing the photos are automatically saved as an attachment as well as hotlinked...


What am I missin' here? Is there a setting to make it not happen?

I'm concerned because I'm a pretty visual guy and like to link images to describe my feelings du jour but if I do that a bunch I'll likely hit a limit on attachments no?


Help a brotha out, do I make sense? Are ya gettin' me?

Rick has it set up so that any photo posted is added to an archive.

There is no limit for attachments. This is done so that lets say I quit miatas and decide to delete all of my photobucket? you guys will still have nice pretty how-tos with pictures (well, maybe not pretty , but ya get what I mean!).

Do not fret! You will not run into any sort of attachment limit here (unlike miata.net, which does have a limit).
