"STOP HOTLINKING!"
« on: November 27, 2006, 01:44:31 PM »
I get a flashing message at my website, www.jessez.mbhosting.com after I added an image to it. I am supposed to have this image for an extra service that I have for my website.

This is the image:
http://www.freedomain.co.nr/images/bars/anima.gif

Its very annoying, besides, im not hotlinking, I was supposed to have this.

Is there any way to make it stop?
BTW: This is half rant, half wanting help, thats for your FYI

You may have to live with it.  Stuff like this often goes along with free hosting.  That should be no surprise.

By the way, are you actually supposed to link the image to a URL?  I would think that was the intent of the hosting service.

do you have access to the HTML source .... identify the IMG SRC command that is posting this to your webpage and remove it...

The webhost may have a feature that will test your code and repopulate the gif and link... Is this a free web host??? I've seen free webhosts merge their own code into pages to be a nuisance ...

Probably not much help, but check it out if you are familiar with HTML editing

Did you add the HTML that came with it? I believe you're given the option either put the HTML on the page or put the Picture and link it to there site something like that.

Unfortunately, no HTML came with the image. They didnt even tell how to add it.

I am just going to wait until they attack me with complaints, then I will probably save the image to my server.

Oh goodness

What a deal for a free service

Its not webhosting, its so I can have a shorter domain, since I dont like all this www.jessez.mbhosting.com buisness, its too long, so I have www.jessez.co.nr or whatever it was now

I got it figured out...
I needed to use a HTML code that was kind of hard to find...
