Graphics, FanArt, and Vid Makers!

[trystan830.livejournal.com]

raloria and i were chatting, and it seems there's another site out there that hotlinks icons, fan art, vids... even though the blog credits the original post. this is a BLOG - but it HOTLINKS.

and so on. there's so much STUFF over there, it's disheartening. if you see your stuff, leave a comment for the blog owner to take it down - it's YOUR bandwidth!

there's also this site - which i can't see - but there's art, wallpapers, icons, all not credited! - Mischief Managed! site's down!

EDIT: there's some unofficial stuff here and here too - lots of uncredited ComicCon photographs too!

honestly, why to people do this? all total, i've seen three sites like these, and they've all been in Europe, so i'm just curious - is there something about the language barrier that precludes people like this from asking the creators/artists if they can repost graphics on their own site and give credit? or are they really just that ignorant?

you can look to see if your graphics and what-not are reposted by googling your photobucket URL and see what you get.

What is wrong with people? Ugh. I saw so much from my flist and the fandon in general on the top link that it's like that other chick back in August all over again.
The one is down now? I saw it late last night on my way out-saw an animation that my friend had made-let her know too. But this site is down now?
*Hugs*

i THINK that site is down - i've always gotten a white page since i first found the link....

i don't know what's wrong with people...*sigh*

I just tried it-and it won't load for me-I am not sure if it's my pc(been on 4 days straight-lol), or if the site is truly down. It says it can't display the site. Huh. I hope it's down-I hate they hotlink!
*Hugs*

both me and raloria are getting black pages - so maybe it really is down - but i just updated the post with two more links!

[moondropz.livejournal.com]

I just saw the update! I am gonna try the url thing-so not happy. ;-( People suck somedays man...

[trystan830.livejournal.com]

i tried it, i'm not linked anywhere. :D

[moondropz.livejournal.com]

I took my general link to my account-no results-was I doing that right? Ugh-this just sucks for everyone involved.
*Hugs*

[trystan830.livejournal.com]

right, just the general main link to your PB, like mine would be "img.photobucket.com/albums/v495/Trystan830/"

[moondropz.livejournal.com]

Ok, good-I'm clear then. Just ugh. People do stupid things-all I can say. Thanks for the updates!
*Hugs*

[trystan830.livejournal.com]

yes, people do stupid things.

glad you're in the clear! *woot*

you're welcome.

[moondropz.livejournal.com]

They do. ;-(
I'm glad I am-but feel for those who got hotlinked-I know how that feels. Not cool.
*Hugs*

[trystan830.livejournal.com]
