The thumbs or the view image links.

In the case of some douche hijacking your image, the thumb will send surfers to his site while the view image links will still redirect surfers to your site.

Thanks
Some hosting control panels like cPanel have a Hotlink Protection option. You add in only the sites you want to display your images ( including your own and don't forget to include your numerical address as well ) and turn it on. It automatically rewrites your .htaccess file with a code similar to what I posted. Turn it off, it restores your .htaccess to normal.

Otherwise, to do it manually - download your .htaccess file, save an original copy, rewrite the other. Upload the rewritten copy to activate HP. Upload the original copy when you want HP deactivated.
