Why is deeplinking not allowed ?

Sometimes you can get away with it, say if its wikipedia or something like that. But Ive had similar images blocked before. It depends, if its on a blog or user controlled site then its going to get blocked right away.
I now use imgur because it has the best features.

The mods check it's not automatic.

If you host pictures yourself, got some webspace etc, how can you tell who have been hotlinking off you? Can it be done on my Virgin (formerly NTL) webspace?

Yet needlessly using up the finite sum of hard drive space by demanding users duplicate data is good?
They get us underlings to go round checking.
I hosted on blueyonder at one point then google decided to flag the whole domain as a malicious website
I think somehow people got prompts or whatever from there browser for it and I got an infraction for " Spammed Advertisements"
Not with Virgin's webspace, it's too basic, don't think you can access any logs.
With paid hosting you usually get something called "cPanel" it's basically a control panel for your entire hosting account and you can check detailed logs for referrer links to see if any external sites are linking to your images. You can even set up a referrer whitelist so any domains which aren't allowed will automatically be shown a pic of a penis instead of the actual image.

Ahhhh okies, thanks Asim 
This!
You're originally linking a picture of the gorgeous Emma Stone, the owner of the original image may take offense to this and change the picture to a BBC!

you can see bandwidth usage for each individual file on your website as far as I can remember.
I'm not sure if you can see where website traffic is coming from though etc

Was this ever answered or am I missing something?

No, hotlinking is directly using any linkable object located on someone else's server. Typically an image, it can also be some sort of embedded php script, css script. Basically, anything which uses up resources on a remote server every time someone loads a page from your personal local server.
Deep liking is merely describing any pasted/typed link to a resource in a domain which goes deep several levels, eg bob.com/images/ocuk/bob.htm that's a deep link just because it goes "deep" to a specific file within several folders.
