Im just wondering if you created that awards system or whatever it is, and in the templates edits left hard coded links to your images?

Hey trackpads,

Since you are running Apache, just use a simple .htaccess file to put a stop to them hot linking to your images.

Stop Hotlinking and Bandwidth Theft Using .htaccess

And to keep them from being copied off your site, you can either use javascript or better yet, encase the images in a Flash file.

I prefer encasing them in Flash over javascript, but even enclosed in Flash or protected with java script...a simple screen capture will defeat both.

But yeah, the .htaccess file will stop them from hotlinking.

Do that, but replace it with an undesirable image

Update. Well I got the hotlinking taken care of (thanks for that tutorial!) but now to get them to stop using my images. The admin from one board actually responded like this

Quote:
Dude they are on other sites too [site removed]
http://www.mobilitysite.com/forums/awards.php

I can give you other but I'm not the one you need to yell at PM New Jeruz he is the board owner. But he said he don't see a copywrite
So I guess as long as they are stolen on other sites my copyright is null and void. I guess I will have to let the movie industry know so they can stop suing everyone!!

Please...

When those situations arise a fun thing to do is create new copies for your self under different names. Then once you have your script updated. Replace the old images with gigantic ugly images or large images with a message and give them the old images names.
I remember the time when someone was hotlinking forum status icons and other images i did exactly what you mentioned and each forum icon was 1024x768 of my desktop. lol Chucked in several animated images which would have killed their eyes.

Replace the images on your server with other ones... of Kelly Osbourne, leave the same names... and the hotlinked ones will disappear very soon.
