Always happens to every website out there when a webmaster turns on hotlink prevention. If I recall it has to do with ISP, those with a decent ISP won't have that problem if a webmaster decides to use hotlink. However I think there is a fix but I forgot where and how. http://www.w3.org may have a solution

Wait, you mean there a lot of people that can't see the site because of it?

Basically
After I set up my hotlink prevention, a few people I knew in Indianapolis couldn't view the images on the site and would get red X's. People lost intrest in the site so I didn't even bother finding a fix.

Hm, I may have to rethink this hotlinking problem.

We can kill the hotlinkers.
I mean kill their internet connectivity. KF

That's because the hotlink disabler isn't turned on at the moment. I turned it off due to complaints from people not being able to see the Lunar DS official site.

Hmmm, follow up on possible fixes to your hotlinking troubles. The source of the problem is because of viewers behind firewalls and proxy's. Do not use Cpanel's version of hotlinking, instead try below.
Contact one of these people who state they can not view the images on the site. Then try the 4 possible solutions by creating a file called .htaccess and copy and paste an option into it and upload it to your domain root folder and ask the user to refresh and respond if they can see anything. If they can't then try another code until they can view the images on the site but can't view images when its being posting on another site. Different servers act differently and one of these will help find the source of that type of problem you're encountering, one will allow to prevent hotlinking while allowing the images to be viewable for our firewalled and proxy users.

Hot link prevention stops people from linking to images that are on Lunar-net from a different website. If you're not able to see them while on this site then there's most likely a problem in linking between the pages/images, or there's permission conflicts.
You can fix this by going into your FTP client, and changing the CHMOD properties to 777. This should fix the problem. If it doesn't, you can email me and I'll look for more fixes.

Several ISP's in east-central USA have conflicts with hotlink scripts making it so that the image doesn't display reguardless of BBS. Espically known to happen on Surpass hosted websites.

That's simple to fix though. Go through the phpBB ACP, and enable the tag

The question of this thread is "not seeing any images" wasn't referring to posted images but the images of the whole board itself. So doing that is pointless now isn't it?

Then I misunderstood. My bad.
