Another Black Ribbon Day

Sep 01, 2005 01:25

If I watched my site stats instead of the news I'd still know when something bad had happened. Whenever there's a disaster the number of hotlinks to my black ribbon image spike for days. I don't protect from hot-linking because I have plenty of bandwidth and I like people to link to my images (especially if it's because they like them). I certainly won't block links to that image, but for other reasons; I don't want to imagine what it would be like for someone who posts with it to express their grief over the loss of a loved one only to discover it replaced with a hot-link caution notice.

Here are some resized and un-watermarked versions if you ever need them:


Black Ribbon 50



Black Ribbon 100



Black Ribbon 300


Link, download, alter, upload, as you like, no need to ask.

[ In the past I've moved directories around but I always mod for things like that so the links should be sound for as long as own The Ruins. ]

the ruins, new orleans, news
