I just wanted to say that I never hotlink and it's a shame that so many people do, especially with all your warnings. Your icons are great and I want to actually see them, so people should just stop it.

Hotlinkers suck. Just say no to hotlinking!

I guess I wouldn't have any idea on what hotlinking is or how to do it. I have always right-clicked and saved icons to my comp. I wish I knew how to make icons and such. I am just not computer literate that way.

I am sorry that people are taking up all of your bandwidth. My they be blown up by "The Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch." *^_^*

I had the same problem yesterday, only EVERYTHING in my journal layout was that damn Photobucket image. Took me forever to save everything and re-upload it so I feel ya on the stupid hotlinkings. They really need to gtfo.

[awry]

bah Fucking hotlinkers. I say round em all up and avada kedavra them.

I know this'll sound stupid, since 'hot-linking' is everyone, but what does that mean? The only method I know is the Right-Click and Save As.

Everywhere, not everyone. x.x Sorry for clogging up your comments with another. ^^;

Hotlinking is when you link directly to the image on someone else's server. With free accounts like Photobyuckets and such, you can only have a certain amount of views to the picture, so when people view your page instead of uploading the image to their own, you exceed bandwidth....

...I think. If I explained that wrong, then i apologize, and someone please correct me!
