Images opening in html pages

Oh, I don't know, I've seen plenty of pages with full images linked directly to a product page on Amazon or some other affiliate program. What I think would be fair and non blind, is to add text above the image saying, "click the image to get to sponsor site" - not sure if it would be acceptable on a freesite though?

Picture of people or pictures of products?

I don't know too many people who watch full-size pictures of other people and keep on clicking in mainstream. Thumbnails, sure, they're expected to link to the full image or a page with the full image. Once you have the full image though, I wouldn't expect much, as a surfer and would check the browser bar to see where they were taking me.

Anyway, no biggie, I'll keep the images unlinked
