Bandwidth question???

Hello
The other sites.
Scoobynet just transfers the picture request to your browser, and then the browser directly connects to the other site to retrieve the picture.

Sorry just to clarify, if a pic is linked from another site to ScoobyNet... it would be the site in the URL addy, not the site it was taken from originally?
So, a pic posted here from MY site, wouldnt use my bandwidth IF the pic on my site was linked from somewhere else?

it uses the bandwidth of the site the pictures hosted on. some websites dont like you linking to pictures because it can use too much of their bandwidth and it costs them money. your best off rehosting the picture with your own web space if you can

Basically remove all those pics on your web space that you pay for and put them on your internet service providers (isp) webspace they gave you then link them from there to your web site/sites.

Yah as above - it's really bad form and it pisses the hoster off..
When someone remote links to a picture on my site I either change the picture for some **** or to a sign that says "I am a ghey faggoty asswipe" - they tend not to do it again

If you want to stop remote linking then as long as you are on a Linux server you can use a .htaccess file to do that. You can even use it to display a different image IIRC too.

.htaccess on Apache is only for access and auth control, if the server is set up to allow people to use it with the AllowOverride setting. If you want to serve a different image you will either have to set an alias, use a CGI script that returns output dynamically or use mod_rewrite (which you can even do within .htaccess), but mod_rewrite isn't part of a default Apache install.
