Yes. Because it's *viewed* on stovebolt.com, it comes across as transfer bytes with the hosting company. When it's a LINK, the reader actually is going to look at it on YOUR end with whatever your URL is.
This was a surprise to us five years ago when we had ProHosting. We had a lot of images SHOWN on our site, but housed someplace else (we even got a second domain which we thought would help). We saved server space (which wasn't an issue at all, ever) but the bytes were eating
us up!
Hence we ask (when possible) to use a link rather than an image. Or at least switch after a short while.
