The Return of Image Stealing!

Posted by Christine Published in Geek, General

Ohh, I discovered another person using an image of mine, linking directly off my server. As we all know by now that is a no-no. Lets take a look shall we? (Personal details blocked out)

The background was from a picture I took of Scotland almost ten years ago. I think the new image is much better.

UPDATE: My lovely background is gone. Le sad.

huh.

So they hotlinked it? See, I would not consider that not so much stealing, since they didn’t actually copy the image to their server and then use it there. More like borrowing, I suppose. Still. heh. Any response from said person regarding the background change?

I dont care if they download the image and do whatever. Its when they hotlink it, its costing *me* bandwidth. Thats uncool. So far I dont think the person in question has figured it out yet.
