Geocities checks the HTTP_REFERER header and sends a 40x if the contents aren't Geocities. In other words you can use images in your webpages, but not link to them or embed them in pages on other servers. Well, that's the behaviour I've seen a lot, but I've also seen exceptions so ultimately I'm not sure how they work it 100%.
