Not worth a new thread and in anticipation of a battering of "DO IT YOURSELF"'s...

Can anyone help me out by vectoring a photo for me?

I'd consider it a good idea to inform those on /board. Considering we (not including myself here) made said images.

# It's happening to me right now with one particular forum
and I've been unable to track it down for various reasons. If I could identify the image I'd just rename it to break the link... I'm not interested in being nasty about it and normally I don't care, but we're talking about thousands of hits and I'm starting to get concerned about bandwidth.

# does your stats page not have a 'referers' section?
(, Mon 25 Feb 2008, 23:02, archived)
# Oh yeah
that's not the problem... I know what forum it is, and they've racked up 16,099 hits this month so far. The problem is that when I go to the referring URLs, there aren't any of my images there... I've searched dozens of their pages. I just can't figure out what image they're using, and because my image server is a windows machine, I can't block their domain.

# I had this problem on a windoze server
the answer is to use a .ashx file (generic http handler) and check the http referrer before calling Response.WriteFile

then store all your images in the App_Data folder where they can't be linked
