As you folks know hot-linking is not supported by us simply because it tends to eat up other websites monthly data allowance and their admins end up paying more for their web-hosts. It's not really fair on them. Hence we have this rule in place so more websites will support us and our members. For contributors we've personally tested these tools and found them to be both useful and easy to use, we hope you do to.

All the tools listed below are safe and completely free to use.
