Explain it a little more better, and post your code and show use what you want to do.

Looks like you need to use the CURL library and file_get_contents();

I think we should be able to.
When speeding on the highway, remember, its not the jerk behind you 'making you speed' that will help you pay your ticket - its you, and you alone.

This is the same deal. Those "some sites" may have paid for that right (yahoo specifically does pay for the right), and others may have found sites that specifically allow them to do so in their terms of service.

Neopets is neither of those. The terms of service on their site (to me, at least) are extremely specific about what you want to do:
Neopets terms and conditions wrote:2. Using Neopets Artwork Off The Site.
You can display our pictures on your own personal web pages for your personal noncommercial use ONLY as long as you write either "Copyright 2000-2006 Neopets, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Used With Permission" or "(c) 2000-2006 Neopets, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Used With Permission" on EVERY page with our pictures and/or text and you link directly to us. By the way, this means that you can't sell ads, barter for stuff, offer your services, or otherwise earn money, Neopets' Items, or Neopoints either on web pages that contain our pictures and other Materials, or by using our pictures or other Materials, such as by offering to make Neopets banners or backgrounds for others. If there is anything you are unsure of about this, please contact us using this form and we will do our best to give you a quick answer.
http://neopets.com/terms.phtml

Based on that, I would use the form to ask first.

Better to get permission first, than be sued.
