---- Does Image Hot Link Protection Ruin Image SERPs?

I noticed about a week ago that all of my images had been removed from image search. I was using hotlink protection, but I had explicitly exempted Google from the redirect rules.

I removed the hotlink protection completely, and my images are all back in the image search results.

Looks like I'll just have to eat the bandwidth charges, if I want my images to be in Google Image Search.
