I've enable hotlink protection on all my sites, now how do I allow google to hotlink images from my site. For example when doing an image search, I want them to cache my images.

Will this code work???

Code:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://.*google.([^/]+)/.*$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://.*google.([^/]+)$ 	[NC]
