This is an extremy poor way if doing it, the images are always going to be pulled from the other web server if you do it this way. Meaning if they noticed they could make some changes and check if the referer was your website, then they could have it return a different set of images containing slurs, porn, or whatever.

Yes then you can change it to your web server or whatever

Yeah, instead of hardcoding the URLs like you said, you want to download all the images and put them in the respective locations. Then keep the relative locations in the CSS file.
