Image Hotlinking and DSL Issues.
I know people really want to know why I haven’t posted, or dropped EntreCards in the last 2 days, but I’ll tell you anyway. We had severe storms the other morning and thanks to the wonderful wiring we have in this state, phone service was sporadic at my house, which screwed up my DSL. I should be back to normal tomorrow. If, in fact I was ever normal.
I’d also like to thank SwollenPickles.com for this article on image hotlinking-because for the first time in 3 years I caught someone. Read the article on how to prevent this and have a little fun with the idiot. Instead of seeing the image they “think” they’re linking to from my server, they’ll see this:
So the cute puppy dog picture they were linking to has been replaced. Morons.
hilarious photo… serves them right!
Laura @ Laura Williams’ Musings’s last blog post..Thursday Edition of Contests Galore
It’s one of my favorite pics. I’m going to post the name of the website because he/she is hotlinking to other sites as well.
Wow.Whats the picture. I wanna that garand mom!

I replace all of my hotlinked pictures with a goatse picture. If you don’t know what goatse is, don’t look it up.

I looked it up on Wikipedia. I really don’t wanna see it lol
I caught someone a few months ago. I replaced it with a picture saying this imagine was stolen from my site, and included my link. If they’re gonna steal my bandwidth, I’m getting credit for it! lol

Yeah I should add my domain name to the pic. I mean it still links here, but I’d rather people come to the main page lol.
Great Picture man, Hilarious
Jason- I have yet to have anyone do that to me yet, but I am eagerly waiting for it because that is my exact plan as well. Good ole Goatse.

I wish I could find a picture of a midget doing that. No offense to any midgets who may be reading my blog.
Nice photo. How exactly do you catch hotlinkers again?

Since I use WordPress I can see who is linking to me and which pages. So it’s pinged-back to my site each time. I noticed it in the list and couldn’t figure it out- until I hovered over the pictures and noticed all the other sites being hotlinked to-then I found mind.
Great pics made me laugh out loud though i am not sure that was the intent
Oh, that explains your new picture over at my directory listing
Wanted to give you some Valentines scratchback love, but your topspots are gone

I have a not-so-nice picture I serve them, and I’m a nice person!
Let’s hope it gets them off your back. I am sure they will just move on to someone else though.. great pic.
