The switcheroo

I discovered this evening that someone was hotlinking to an image on my site.
I’m a little ashamed to say that I’m having a ball with the power this gives me.
For those who don’t know, If you link to an image from someone else’s site and display it on yours or anywhere else it’s called hotlinking and is a form of bandwidth theft. It also gives someone else the power to change said image to what ever they like, which is exactly what I did. I figure since I’m paying for the bandwidth I minus well take advantage of it and advertise.
I took a screen shot of the new image that’s being displayed.
HeHeHe…. I hope she likes it.
Here’s the original image she linked to. Feel free to copy and save it. Use it however you like, just please don’t hotlink….

I used to catch people doing this and would replace the graphic with a huge ugly graphic saying “I am a thief who stole this graphic”.
