Not illegal.

In fact he posted the same thing you did, a link. The forum software can display image links without that image being copied or duplicated (the illegal part).
The host continues to maintain full control of that image....If they delete it from their server, it will no longer appear here.

[Y2Kvert4me]

commentary and satire are fair use.'Not necessarily.....But in this case there's been no "use", only a link to the image at the host site.
