Tumblr images won't hotlink

Is there a reason for this? I have to reupload pics and gifs from tumblr to post them here. They work fine on other forums.

"Inline linking (also known as hotlinking, leeching, piggy-backing, direct linking, offsite image grabs, bandwidth theft) is the use of a linked object, often an image, from one site by a web page belonging to a second site. The second site is said to have an inline link to the site where the object is located............ "

The banners in the Concerts forum and the Prince: Music and More forum:

"Finally, when posting any media reports, new release info, "this just in" type of stuff, etc..., please link back to your source for that info. Always remember to give credit for any photos you may obtain from other sites - and remember: absolutely no hotlinking/leeching from other fan sites, personal servers etc - PERIOD!"
