That's not necessarily a bad thing, as long as you aren't using it for archival purposes. I would prefer not everything I post live forever.
While I'd agree for identifying pictures, image hosting that suddenly doesn't one day becomes a huge problem for a lot of old tutorial-based content. Look at any old car forum for examples.
I was thinking about this problem recently after I got an email from photobucket that I was over the new limit of photos. I think a more appropriate place to host tutorial content would be on GitHub.
For that kind of thing, I'd say host the images with the rest of the content.
