Hotlink warning...

[saifai]

Using the handy-dandy tool over at .htaccess Tools (dot) com (as suggested by my site hosts), I have finally installed image protection on my site.

I'm telling y'all for two reasons:

1) I think I got all the domains that access my images with permission added in, but if you happen to see one of my "hotlinking not allowed" images... could you let me know?
2)The site I linked is an easy solution for those of you who've been having these troubles with image theft too.

For those of you who are having trouble with understanding the concept of HOTLINKING, may I direct your attention to an article on the subject: "What is hotlinking and bandwidth theft?"

ETA: I almost forgot, I found a HOTLINKING REPORT page on Xanga.com for those of you with theft problems from that site. HERE.

I had a much better one for the icons, but this one works too.
