MySpace Idiots

While I can't accuse them of having bad taste, it still pisses me off that all these MySpace losers who think they are SO computer literate don't get the problem with linking directly to images on someone else's website. It's called BANDWIDTH THEFT for a reason. So instead of getting worked up about it, I went to some of my old posts (with the hijacked images) and replaced the images with same-named files of some really nasty pictures that have smart remarks on them about the clever posters. Today I took one girls face and photoshopped it to a monkey's butt - do you think they will get the hint? Now when Buffy, Amber and SwanGirl and the rest of the crew login to their MS accounts to see how much love they have garnered today, the new wallpaper they stole from me is going to shrivel their heads. I'm going to keep track and the little darlings who don't get the message and remove the links quickly are going to be linking to some Class XXX porno-graffee by this time next week.

how do you track bandwidth theft?

You go girl. Good that you have enough techno savvy to do it. Revenge is sweet.

LOL! I have done that before! When I used to host my images on our own server, it was easy to check where the image thieves were. I found the image (which was a great gerber daisy shot I did) on over 20 sites! I exchanged the photo for something a little more interesting, and went back and looked at the sites again.

LOL! some had used my image as their site background. The site that used it the most often were blogger sites, but it was posted on some image sharing site (where people find images they like and post it there--they don't own the images).

I can't tell with my flickr site if the same is happening, but they aren't stealing my bandwidth anymore! (except flickr does have a limit on useage--I have never come close).
