FYI for stupids

I had to block hotlinking on this site today because so many people are stealing my bandwidth by calling my images directly instead of hosting them on their own space, or moving them to photobucket or something. I'm flattered that enough people like my weird pokemon to find uses for the images, but it's pretty rude to hotlink them like that. I know who you are too and some of you really took a chunk out of my bandwidth limit. >:[

So, to people who might be wondering 'why isn't the supercool drawing in my profile showing up' or 'why isn't the tiling background for my forum of this awesome drawing I found showing up', it's because I've locked you out. I'm happy to let people use my pictures for stuff like that, but please rehost the images elsewhere and then use them. :)

Lastly, my hotlinking blocker works on the basis of allowing certain sites, and not blocking certain sites (I wish it worked the other way around) so some legitimate sites may be blocked- but the only legit sites would be the ones where I'm posting the images there myself, and I should know about those. Either way, some pictures in legit places might not be showing up, if that's the case then let me know please. :)
