He technically posted code that links to the source material much like google does. Users' browsers interpret that code and display the image that is residing on the copywrite owners server. I understand skyscraper forum rules and the law are two different things but it's not infringing on any copywrites by inline linking (in the US anyway, Perfect10 sued Google for showing linked images and it was ruled it was not inviolation of copywright law since google did not have a copy of said image. That's my understanding anyway, could be wrong).
