# you use ftp to upload the file
use http to display the file

your image tag should look somewhat like this

[img src=http://www.yoursitehere.com/directory/image.gif]

except replace the [ and ] with the point bracket things

# It's in the link.
I once started up an FTP on my home machine, forgot to password it, came back to find one and a half CDs of "babewatch" in spanned .rar archives in a new directory, and exactly 100k of oriental-sounding names with IPs in a file called 100k.txt.

And no disk space at all.

It's very very easy to spot. It's critical he changes the password right now.

# well
the error message I get popping up on each refresh has changed, so I guess the password has been changed by someone. Now if only Eccles would read the advice and edit their post...

edit - Judging by Eccles' lack of response, I'm guessing someone else has changed the password.

# I hope they tell him what they changed it to!
Although I suppose blueyonder can re-do it for him.
Just so long as it's no longer accessable by the great unwashed.

Edited. But security via obscurity is no security at all.

and have been trying to get eccles to sort it out... but there were people on the board who didn't know and i figure we should try and be nice and minimise the hassle... people spent hours messing around in his account the other night...
