# nice gag
well made! but it looks like your hosts don't allow remote linking, because it's not loading on the board. you could try msn groups. there's a link to a tutorial on using them in the FAQ (up there).

welcome! :)

edit: you might also consider reducing the image dimension - most people for around 280px wide (as a guide)

# you`re better to disable referrer if possible
I`ve set my server up to block remote linking from basically anywhere but b3ta or flibz (unless referrer is empty), so you`ll miss out all my wonderful stuff

# but where and how
would i be looking at your stuff other than on b3ta, flibz or on your actual site?!

# I had some bozos
post a couple of links on a forum. Normally I wouldn`t care, but being on ADSL, the upload is slow and it drags down the download speed. I like you guys (awwww) so that`s fine; but I don`t like people I don`t know nicking my bandwidth.

I suppose it`s a bit like the odd person here posting stuff they didn`t make, and not bother to host it themselves.

Right, that`s my moral thing over. Time for the offie and some beers.
