COMPLEX OF GOGURYEO TOMBS, NORTH KOREA
According to wikipedia, "The Complex of Goguryeo Tombs lies in North Korea. In July 2004 it became the first UNESCO World Heritage site in the country. The site consists of 63 individual tombs from the later Goguryeo kingdom, located in the cities of P'yŏngyang and Namp'o. This kingdom was one of the strongest in the north east of China and the Korean Peninsula between the 5th and 7th centuries AD. The kingdom was founded in China around 32 BC, and the capital was transferred to P'yŏngyang in AD 427.

Many of the tombs, such as the Anak Tomb No. 3, have beautiful wall paintings. The tombs are almost all that remains from this culture. There are over 10,000 Goguryeo tombs overall, but only about 90 of those unearthed in China and Korea so far have wall paintings. The Complex of Goguryeo Tombs inscribed on the World Heritage List contains the majority of these tombs with wall paintings. It is thought that the complex was used as a burial site for kings, queens and other members of the royal family. The paintings found on the tombs offer an unique insight into the everyday life of the Goguryeo period.

The following criteria were considered by UNESCO to merit the Goguryeo tombs' inscription as a World Heritage site:

-The wall paintings are masterpieces of the Goguryeo period. The tombs themselves reflect ingenious engineering capabilities.
-The customs of the Goguryeo culture were influential all over East Asia, including Japan.
-The site offers exceptional insights into the Goguryeo culture, both into everyday life and burial customs.
-The Goguryeo tombs are an important example of this burial typology."

Images can indeed be shown in your posts. However, there is no facility at present for uploading images directly to this board. Therefore you must link to an image stored on a publicly accessible web server, e.g. http://www.some-unknown-place.net/my-picture.gif. You cannot link to pictures stored on your own PC (unless it is a publicly accessible server) nor to images stored behind authentication mechanisms such as Hotmail or Yahoo mailboxes, password-protected sites, etc. To display the image use either the BBCode [img] tag or appropriate HTML (if allowed).

According to this, I am allowed to post images.
And don't you think that these girls are a lot more beautiful than landscapes? :lol:

Okay. Just wanted to let you know to be careful because you can't hotlink (whatever that means, to me).
And those girls are not my taste so I'm still on the landscapes. I'd prefer pale Thail girls and tanned Japanese girls over landscapes if you showed them. :lol:

Well i believe that if you have authority to hotlink into that server, then I don't see there any problems.... Other hands it should be eachothers own bussines to protect own server/page against of extra traffic, and also protect own intellectual property.

Well it's difficult to explain, for me... Basically it's when we have 2 different hosts or page or server(I don't know which way is right to name it. but I think host is right) Now we have A picture hosted in host1 and we make a page that is hosted on host2 to show it. So basically in forum when make this [img]some_domain/pilt.jpg[/img] then is pilt.jpg hotlinked to forum

Okay, let's see if I get this right... For example, if I wanted a picture from website A. I took the picture and then posted on website B. However, I didn't tell where I took the picture from. And I didn't show the address of website A or give that site any credits. It meant I hotlinked the picture from website A to B illegally, right? :?
