Default Bandwidth Thief
Someone keeps linking to my attachments on my server and posting them everywhere. I didn't mind this at first, but my site isn't getting any bigger by this guy posting everything on other forums instead of making them come to me.

Is their any way i can stop this from happening but when he does do it, i want another image to appear like they do at angelfire when you try to hotlink their images. Hopefully you guys know what i'm tlaking about and can help.

Thanks

Search there for 'htaccess image' and you should find something useful.

Or, most cpanel controlled accounts have a feature to stop "hotlinking". Check it out if your on a cpanel account - lots easier

my option still stands - if you set permissions right then members linking to your attachments wont be able to download them unless they a member.
