I don't know if this works, but if someone wants to try it:

Preventing People from Linking to Your Images
Add the following to the .htaccess file:
# Rewrite Rule for images
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER}
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://
You would replace the above with the domain name and path of the page that is referring to your domain. For example: www.their-isp.net/users/mypage/
The RewriteCond directive states that if the {HTTP_REFERER} matches the URL that follows, then use the RewriteRule directive. The RewriteRule directive will redirect any reference back to the referring web page.

Wow, no posts in two days! I've been sleeping pretty much all the time, but the flu is still here. Right now I'm craving some ice cream (even though it's twenty some degrees outside) so we are going to Baskin Robbins hoping that it's still open

I feel like crap today. I think I have the flu plus I have a stinky fever. This sucks! Needless to say I will be sleeping all day long, so don't expect any coherent postings today.

I was just wondering if anyone received the Blogger stickers promised during the server fund campaign.

I wonder why the 90210 page is still up at the Fox website. Last I've heard, the show (finally) ended.

Dammit, I caught that flu/cold bug that's going around. I've been sleeping pretty much since I've got back from work. And to top it all, we ran out of medicine and I don't feel like going out to get more. Oh, and I missed Voyager and Temptation Island (I like to watch those ppl bitch and complain about their SO doing something they shouldn't do even do they are doing it also heheh).

The Undead Tech Support: because vampires need help too. I haven't laughed so much in a long time! LOL

Just when all the snow from last year and all the stupid ice on the sidewalks have (finally) melted, it snows again. Dammit. I live in the wrong state. I don't mind driving on snow, I just don't like the idiots that drive 90mph on it!

Not a surprise, a practicing attorney sues the Survivor's producers. The catch is that she was a contestant on the show (second one to get booted off, I think). I tell you, we live in the land of the lawsuits!

Look, Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman decided to separate after 11 years. I just laugh at the reason: "Citing the difficulties inherent in divergent careers which constantly keep them apart, they concluded that an amicable separation seem best." Okay, and they really didn't know that before they got married? OTOH, now he is single! woohoo ;-)

For $65US plus car registration fees, you can register a college license plate with the logo of differents universities of Michigan. Someone says that they saw this one in NYC: (M)orons. If it's real, all I have to say is that it was very clever! Lets see, one from Wayne State would say (W)uss? lol

It looks like Microsoft and Fox hire their PI's from the same company:
Dispute may force Microsoft to delay Xbox launch.

Demented Tech Support, for the techie guy/gal in all of us.

On the Internet Addiction Test, I scored a 36:
You are an average on-line user. You may surf the Web a bit too long at times, but you have control over your usage.

Two years ago (while I was still in school), I might've scored a 75!

For some reason, this layout makes me want to start doing origami again. I used to be good at it when I was little. I even took some classes with a bunch of "old" people.

You would think that after watching The Princess Bride two times today I would be sick of it, but HBO is showing it again right now (I have seven HBO channels thanks to digital cable) and I'm watching it!

Finally got everything reinstalled! Now I have an AMD Thunderbird 800MHz with 320MB of RAM. Photoshop just opens so fast now.. yay!
