- 2009-07-26: Google changed the container for the URL to the hosting page, script updated accordingly.
- Links become broken when host does not allow hot-linking. It will work once the image has been loaded into cache when first viewed through original context (like in the case of Googles default behavior). Not sure there is a clean workaround for this, but one possibility is using a 3rd-party website to generate a blank referrer, but since there is no way to predict what images it would be needed for, meaning that it would need to be implemented on all images, this will not be done.
