Is This You?
Jul 26^th, 2006 at 1:52pm

I occassionally look through my web server logs to see what kind of people visit the forums or the other stuff I host. I found a ton of hits for my signature line image (the thing at the bottom of this post) from a referrer that I don't recognize. The website is BlueOctoberFan.com, which I'm guessing is a band website. I'm too lazy to really investigate.

The exact URL for one of the posts is...

http://blueoctoberfan.com/openBook/viewtopic.php?t=39515

The person using my sig line is "fuclosure", and his post is the fourth from the top. Here's a screenshot of it.

If this is one of you guys, I really don't care, just let me know. If, on the other hand, it's just some random image thief, I'm going to change the name of my sig picture to something else and come up with something extraordinarily homosexual to replace the existing one. That should give fuclosure something to think about next time he wants to hotlink to one of my images.

Just to show that I'm not being unreasonable, my sig picture was downloaded 541 times in 24 hours from users of that site. That's a lot of downloading. That's 2.1MB of data, or roughly 16 seconds of my precious bandwidth. Bastages. -b0b (...is currently downloading 13.4GB of e-books.)
