Hanger-On Registered: Jan. 70 | ...somebody stole his sig pic... this should be a lesson to the lot of you. you can't just link a pic from some odd site as your sig pic. it's stealing their idea as well as their bandwidth. have the common decency to alter the pic in some way and host it on your own site. it's best for everyone.

O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01 | It's called hotlinking and I'm getting very tired of being emailed by server Admins because people are doing it. Is my train in vain, has my soul gone to waste Am I just a victim of, a victim of my lost faith | ||||

Hanger-On Registered: Jan. 70 | Oh trust me Froy, with the amount of traffic my site was getting from hosting sigs alone, I know what hotlinking is. Just posting your sig in a few threads on this board can generate 5000+ direct file requests in a month. And when the board really get's hopping it can really slow down the site that the pic is hosted on.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | here's a novel idea...if sigpics are causing so many problems with system admins and what not...why not ban em? It's not enough that you want a cracker...you have to earn it! Now I'm going on a bender to end all benders | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | 'Cause it's not the sig pics that are causing the problems... It's the people who are directly linking to pics on other sites that they don't own. The easiest way around it, if there's a pic you like.. is to DOWNLOAD it from the site you find it on.. tweek it a little bit.. then upload it to your OWN personal hosting account. Banning sig pics in general isn't necessarry, MOST folks put their stuff on their own locations.. not only that.. but sig pics are used to help identify people, maybe give a little hint about personality.. they are, in all essence.. a part of "who" we are on this board... It'ld be like cutting of a limb.. Then again.. one fairly knowledgeable person once said: "If thine eye offends thee.. pluck it out" So maybe you have a point.. though I would rather it was a last resort.

TeenWeek what's a status? | posted on 06-28-2001 @ 7:12 AM | ||||
O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | I am a changed poster. I will no longer use sig pics. I was hoping a mod, could add to my status that I am a bandwidth thief. I should be treated as a worse criminal than O&J for stealing sig pics. Or anything you can think of that would be funny. I don't care. Seriously though, I had no idea about this. I think this is actually good in a way because I am sure many people did not know this. I e-mailed the guy and he was cool. I promised to delete that pic from all previous posts (naked woman, with her butt shaking). Thanks Froy for all of your help yesterday. | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00 | Try this, it's Grumpy's sigpic hosting site. There is a theory which states that if anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another which staes this has already happened. ---Douglas Adams Now seeking junior Brownstones to adopt | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | This f'n blows. The search your posts function is not working and I have to figure out where I used this sig pic for the past week and than delete them all. Luckily I don't use anything longer than a week. | ||||
