        Why do the rest want to keep Quebec, anyway? I mean, it's not like it (or the Maritimes) fulfill any useful function ...

          That's just a jpg file left by a whiny little site owner who got tired of paying for to much bandwidth. I say if they leave it open then use it. If they're to lazy or stupid to properly code their site then they have no room to whine.

            Oerdin, you know they are properly coding their site, right? There's fundamentally no other way to prevent people from deep-linking to your images.

              Want to bet? Go ahead and try to deep link to poly.


              In any event you need to reread what I wrote. I said if a web site doesn't protect against leeching then they deserve what they get. In this case they did protect themselves.

                Yes.

                Show me a way (apart from writing your entire site in Flash ffs) that you can design a site with pictures on it that people can't link to.

                  Have it return a null image to referring sites not matching your hostname.

                    Go ahead and try to leech something from poly and see how it doesn't work. Effectively the same thing only instead of replacing the leeched picture with "I'm a thief" or other such nonsense they just delete the picture. The point is still made and the leeching stops.

                    Next you can also disable the right click when the mouse goes over your images though a smart person can still get them from the cache.

                      ... my point was that this is the only solution, Asher.

                        No they don't.

                        Only idiots are stopped by the right-click bit. alt-v-o ftw.

                          $5 that the idiot who considers image hot-linking as "theft" says P2P is fine.

                            Actually, image linking costs the site owner money. The site owner usually says "put up the image but host it yourself."

                                Also, anyone who puts up the right-click protection comes off as irritatingly amateur.
