Would you update it, please? That's okay like 2 or 3 years ago. But nowadays it's DEFINATELY NOT okay to direct link. (Although taking art and re-uploading is worse.) Most doujinshi sites have a warning on "please do not do online bookmark". (Online bookmark = something like this post.) And there's access analysis functioning. They can backtrack where people are coming from. If they found a good amount of access from a suspecious overseas site, lots of artists will give warning on top page or in the diary (which is generally ignored) and then move or simply close down the site. Dozens of doujin sites disappear this way... closed, moved, or become strictly for friends so you'll have to write a nice Japanese email promising you'll behave in her site to get in. XD And when they move, they usually don't bother to update the data on search sites so they are almost as good as gone. I regretted not checking some sites on a regular basis. When they moved all I can see now is a goodbye pic and message "I moved. Don't bother searching for it 'cause you won't find it."
For fanart lovers, if you see a tiny spinning shuriken at the corner of the page, that's the access analysis program. That shows the artist care about where her site is linked from. Never direct link to doujin sites. Don't make all the good sites close down.
If you wish to show the site, please take out the "h" in http so it won't link just by clicking on it. It won't be reecognized as direct linking if people have to copy&paste the url or add an "h" to it.
Or embrace the "Geass Search". They won't get pissed when linking from Geass Search.
