ETA: after I left a comment on her Xanga, she deleted the post with my hotlinked icons in it. However, there are still many other maker's icons hotlinked there

those evil hotlinkery people just love you don't they? and I've made it so your posts just are always approved (I only have things moderated to make sure no one does off topic stuff but I know you won't) sorry you have to deal with it again

[eyesthatslay]

They do. Especially my Christmas stuff, that's when my bandwidth started going through the roof.

Thanks, for fixing that for me. I really appreciate not having to deal with that delay anymore when posting.

Wow. A lot of 'bandwidth' exceeded messages. I wonder if that's the load of things being taken from the maker. Its really disturbing. Great work there, but you couldn't begin to take that because you don't know who made it.

I know, it's sickening isn't it?

I had my bandwidth exceeded because of all the hotlinking to my Chrismas icons. So now I have to pay for my Photobucket account, because of disrespectful thieves.

I know, I'm always shocked at how many icons these people grab, with no thought at all to keeping tabs on who to credit, and then happily sharing them without any concern at all. It boggles the mind.

I found more of your christmas icons hotlinked http://www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=THats_HotT_ic0nS. This person was listed in this community months ago...there was retribution, I can assure you. Because madelineanne was the one that posted it and she will replace images with porn if people hotlink her. But this xanga user is STILL hotlinking. Idiots!

Thanks for the heads up, hon.

I finally moved all my Christmas icons today. At least now I know they'll have nothing but a bunch of photobucket banners instead of my icons.

I don't understand why these people continue to hotlink either. It's so senseless.

Oh, you soooo need to visit the site I told you about above again. Check out the pop up they hae now!!! It basically says along the lines of
"If you visited the site before we had signs about people taking icons. But we removed them and you all say you like the icons, so we're good. Keep coming."

That person needs to be reported. hotlinkers has suggestions about how to report hotlinkers. Good grief. They know what they are doing and don't care. I think I might sign up on Xanga just so I can comment to these retards.

[thesuthernangel]

Oh and apparently they are wrong. B/C your big banner is still showing up. Mwa ha ha!!!!

This site has been mentioned in the comm before so i haven't reposted the link but i noticed they are hotlinking some of your icons, the xmas ones. You should check them out.

Thanks so much for the info. I've moved all my Christmas icons, so the links are broken. :)
