The breach of copyright enters into the equation when a user deliberately downloads an image to keep.  Storing it in the web cache is regarded as ok because it's part of the way the computer works and (theoretically, at least) it won't be stored permanently.

Downloading something from Freestuff is in no way the same because the content creators have given their permission for you to do that.  Books and DVDs are allowed to be given as gifts because you have the right to redistribute that particular copy once you have bought it.  You are not, however, allowed to make copies of them for redistribution, free or otherwise.

Artists on here are not trying to sell their gallery images.  Don't confuse money changing hands with copyright.  The creator of the work has the right to say what can and cannot be done with the work and unless stated otherwise by the creator, downloading and storage of gallery images here is not permitted.
