I would!I found it amazing to see how much stuff was getting leeched from my site. I've now set it to block all but a few named referrers. Just spotted that someone on fark had leeched one of my images, found it was blocked, and so hosted it themselves! Not sure if that's more cheeky or less cheeky! :O)

If people like something, then fair enoughAs long as they're not claiming it as their own (or, more likely not not claiming it). And most of the people who stamp their names on their work just do it in the bottom corner anyway, making it easily croppable.

it depends on your hostingMy site is on a server that I have full access to, so I can (and do) run programs to analyse the server logs to see what pages/images have been requested. Some ISPs offer similar things on the webspace they offer. it can be quite interesting (in a dull kind of way!)

I accidentally found outthat my hosts have installed a web stats program on my website without mentioning it. I was trying to create a folder called stats, and it wouldn't let me. so i tried typing that url, and bingo bongo, all the stats a man could possibly need.
