Can we come to some arrangement with Fotopic regarding direct linking from Scoobynet?

Excellent idea! An email has been sent to them asking what we need to do/what it would cost to remove or at the least extend the hit counters.

Wouldnt it be better to strike a deal with turbosport. It's far better in terms of not shrinking them down etc.

Obviously doesnt take much to wipe out 1000 views then. Maybe restricting ourselves to one pic each per post instead of the 10 pics in a row that can happen.

From that Fotopic page:

While this feature is permitted, we recommend that if you are going to use this on a regular basis or rely on it as opposed to using Fotopic's own gallery pages, you use a web hosting service such as Geocities instead.
That's crap advice - Geocities won't let you direct link either.
