I hate it when people do that.

i need to keep up with my server logs to catch these sooner. or, really, i should prevent people from hotlinking them all together. and get myself out of google image search.

at least my own website isnt really safe for work anymore.

It’s only happened to me twice, and that’s when I stopped hotlinking in my .htaccess

I have them redirect to my “I’m a bandwidth stealing asshat” graphic.

http://cariadsrealm.com/asshat.jpg oops forgot the graphic link. :/

what .htaccess trick did you use? i tried using one a while back, but made it so that some people werent seeing any graphics on my site at all even though i allowed every version of my sites.

oh Lord, I just realized, I need to move mine to the appropriate directory, I no longer use /blog but /journal

love, Lynne at 06dec04, 17:00:49

There’s probably a really simple PHP trick to eliminate hotlinking. I’ll look around.
