If I remember my .htaccess properly, this will take all hotlinked images and redirect them to hotlink.html. You can change as needed.

This will not block null refferers and will still allow people to copy and paste, which most of the leech forums instruct their surfers to do.

If you remove the null refferer condition, RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER}!^$,
only requests from your site will be shown the images... and people trying to access images directly via copy and paste will be redirected to hotlink.html.

and hotlink.html should be a small file because you'll get a ton of requests after blocking out null referrers, so a simple 0 second metarefresh to your real desired location would be best. People trying to hotlink images from other sites will still get the red x, but copy and pasters will go to your hell / site of choice.
