Presume everyone has seen the **** scary ghost image in the Non-Scoob forum?
Well the image disappeared yesterday and as I had copied it to my HD I decided to put up a small webpage, firstly for the Scoobynetters to see, and secondly for me to use on my work colleagues today.
I got home from work tonight, and have had 13 emails so far requesting info on both my website (which wasn't even finished) and the pic itself. It appears my URL has been circulated around the whole of the UK and it has used up my entire months data transfer of over 5GB in one day
A couple of the emails have been from IT managers though, asking if I do freelance - from looking at my Flash site, not the piccie. May be a turn up for the books.
Dazz - where did the picture originate from?

****
Cant believe it has gone worldwide. Just topped up my data transfer at quite a cost - hopefully it wont get swallowed up again.
Just wich the site it was on was actually finished as it could have been good for business.

PS I will get some official hit rates when I can from my hosts.

Dream Weaver-
They are about to shut down my web account for posting the pic.
My data transfer has also exceed the daily minimum.
Oh ****, I'm in trouble now. LOL!
The original pic was from a student college website. They also have taken the pic off their site for to many data transfer.
I'll need someone to save the pic and upload to a site with unlimited transfer rate.
Glad you guys enjoyed it. The pic has been circulating around the world.
