  WP.com: Yes
  Jetpack: No
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to moderators and staff)

  Hi @novemberjsierra, they only count against your storage if they’re in your media library.

  If you’ve embedded/hotlinked an image, it won’t be in your library. You’ll want to be careful with that, though, since many service providers don’t allow that and will just show blanks where your images would be. Hoping this helps!
