I used to do that to hotlinkers, too. FUN stuff.
Next time, use imageshack, tinyurl, or photobucket. Don't hotlink. |

Some websites have scripts that turn "hotlinked" pictures into images that say things like "Don't steal our bandwith" or whatever. And as you just saw, others use measures that're a tad more... extreme.
So, in short, if you'd uploaded the picture to www.tinypic.com or some other image hosting site, this wouldn't have happened.
Beaten, by Mo'Phat, I guess. |

It's not "fun stuff", it's freakin' offensive. Kids could be looking.
It would have been just as easy to post a "No Hotlinking" sign in the photo's place like other sites do. Instead they post a disgustig picture.
I'm really sorry guys. No offense was intended, except to hairstylists (because of the bad 80's band "mullet" haircuts in the picture)
I feel horrible.

Everyone makes mistakes man, no big deal.

Don't feel horrible. All dirty hotlinkers have been there at some point in their life. |

Just imagine a bunch of guys wearing spandex, having mullets and mustaches. That's all it was. Not really that exciting.

Now it all makes sense. I was SUPPOSED to be seeing men with mullets in spandex. Of course!
LOL, don't worry about it too much DarkHorse.
