Petra, that works for me. That's still a bit polite.... :evil: .....but I'm a nice guy. (Just ask my mom.)

Wait a minute, it's an 80x80 pixel avatar.
We frequently post much larger images that people can steal ( if they wish :evil: )
Come on, Scottes, why the big deal ?
What can she use it for, other than an avatar.
If you don't like her hot linking then just block it.

Sorry if this sounds a bit sharp but I dont see what all the fuss is about. ?!

Yep, my server allows it, since it's actually in my office. I just never worried about it since I've never had an instance of it before. I guess I have to add it.

... Prevent hotlinking? No more picture posting on POTN after that either :D

I suspect it's because he didn't get a signed model release, and he fears that the more this photo gets around, the more likely it is that the subject will eventually see it.


That, and the simple fact that it's his. Not hers.


I'm not short. I'm concentrated awesome!

Keep the name of your avatar, so she won't notice it's contents has changed (put THIEF on it or something) and then change your wolf-avatar's name to something else (and hide it!)

This is what you should do, but use a picture of Ron Jeremy, aka the hedgehog instead, as someone previously suggested.

But she might like that because it's awesome. Do you happen to have a close-up of his hand?

Sure Scott! Here it is. :lol:

Hotlink prevention using .htaccess allows for exceptions by domain name.

It looks like she has changed it to another wolf shot. Perhaps this one is yours too.


My life is like one big RAW file....way too much post processing needed.
