Someone will be in for a rude surprise

Fresh when it gets here from Julie Barrett
Tuesday, February 21, 2006


I was just going over my referral logs and found that someone was hotlinking a picture from this site at their web site. Folks, hotlinking is a bad thing. It wastes bandwidth. I'm taking other measures to prevent this, but in the meantime made a quick and dirty "DO NOT STEAL BANDWIDTH" image to put in the place of the hotliked image. Someone will not be happy, but that's what they get.

Julie - you may want to explain what hotlinking is. There's a good chance you've picked up a few readers who don't know the term. And thanks for the virtual kick! The deed is done. K.
