At the same time, we could still block wholinkstome out. I just choose not to, as the PR2 just makes them look bad. We can afford the bandwidth costs no problem :) Well Tiago, we cannot use normal .htaccess hot link protection because 1) We allow people to use the image [provided they link back to us] and 2) It is actually a PHP script.

More info: http://www.htaccesstools.com/hotlink-protection/ Damn I hate these stupid situations that can be easily avoided... Imagine being in the same situation but the other site getting digged while still hotlinking images (and content) from you :( Have you tried to change the .htaccess setting so it doesn’t allow hotlinking from that specific domain?

The joy of hotlinking... how hard would it have been to host that image themselves? I have to say... I just discovered your blog today (via linkbuildingblog) and I'm *really* enjoying the content. I don't know what it is about me and bloggers from Toronto. That sucks. The joy of hotlinking… how hard would it have been to host that image themselves?
