Forum posts being stolen?

Oh and I'm pretty sure you couldn't break them.

The system tells the browser 'go here, and tell them you came from here', then the client browser (not their host system) makes the request and says 'hey, I came from here'.

Can't find any of mine there... Yippee!

iI can't believe the amount of work someone put into this.

Chiller, are these yours?

You'd be surprised at how easy something like that is to set up. In general, a completely open website can be duplicated with about 2-3 commands and some time.

Also, if the site was duplicated, why are none of mine there? Not that I'm disappointed, as they are mostly not them worth stealing, but I've posted quite a few pictures, and not one over there.

Seems malicious to me. And the site is still up-I'm browsing it now.. It's amazing how it's like a mirror..

Nice!

I have been known to load up a hard-core porn image in cases like this. :mrgreen:

Darn, it's down... glad I made it though... you didn't happen to notice who I was did you?

Interestingly, that was one of the pictures I made with my A710 IS powershot, which doesn't have the copywrite in the EXIF automatically placed there like I can do with my DSLR's.

Yeah. :er:

I talked to our IT guy here about writting a CSS code for my smugmug site to block it, and they are thinking on it. Not sure if it can be done.

Because you're not looking hard enough:

A lot of your stuff is posted in the beginner's forums. I don't see those copied over there (unless I'm looking in the wrong place).

css won't be able to do anything, since only the .jpeg is being loaded from the webserver. css is something additional that gets called by a html file or html generated by a script. I'm suprised that smugmug allows hotlinking to begin with.
