In all honesty, it was our very own super sleuth Shadera who found his website with all the copyrighted material on it.
But, if HCC is still reading this thread, I want him to continue to focus his lawsuit on me, not Shadera.
Don’t forget, I'm the one who has defamed your character and has cost you money, so stay focused! Eyes on the prize…every red cent I own, remember

No it would not. In NERD's case, his website clearly states that all his images are copyrighted to NERD, and you would need actual permission from NERD to use his images in anyway. I can only assume others protect their images in a similar fashion.
Having said that, you might be able to hot link to the images on his site without doing anything wrong. I'm not 100% sure about that.
