It's for the same reason I add a drop-shadow if I'm not being lazy. But I have heard comments over time from people that some image would have been perfect if not for the watermark or tilt (if they were not so lazy they could adjust the angle themselves. Kids!). I've also been stymied in searches for supposedly "royalty free" public images images that have watermarks. <br /><br />While I use Blogger hotlinking isn't much of an issue for me as it is to the folks who pay for your own sites and bandwidth. I'd still like to stop it though.Sleestakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08512281434803286602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14759247.post-91691032825479017722006-09-15T19:09:00.000-07:002006-09-15T19:09:00.000-07:00I'm not sure what Dorian refered to but I notice I...I'm not sure what Dorian refered to but I notice I have many, many hits to certain images and not the pages themselves. A sure sign of someone hotlinking an image instead of downloading and hosting it themselves. When I change the address of the image the linking goes away.Sleestakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08512281434803286602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14759247.post-60466125108854582462006-09-15T13:25:00.000-07:002006-09-15T13:25:00.000-07:00I'm sorry, could somebody please tell me what this...I'm sorry, could somebody <i>please</i> tell me what this is all about?<br /><br /><a href="http://www.postmodernbarney.com/2006/09/in-light-of-recent-drama.html">Dorian</a> had a post on this (I assume) as well, but I have no idea what you guys are refering to.<br /><br />Can someone post some relevant links for me or should I just count myself lucky to not be involved?Derekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14326906935557548236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14759247.post-29294588053166589282006-09-15T07:44:00.000-07:002006-09-15T07:44:00.000-07:00Nor will I provide info about where the image is f...<i>Nor will I provide info about where the image is from, thereby hurting any potential back-issue sales from an intrigued reader.</i><br /><br />THANK YOU for saying that.
