OP, try what LukeMan did and replace it with an image of a Barbie PC. Goes over REAL well ;)

Also, please PM me the offending link when you do replace it so I can save it for posterity.

My old roommate had a link to a picture of himself flexing that was on my server....he had this on his AIM account that he used to pick up chicks with.

I found a picture of the smallest one possible and it took him a good 2 weeks to notice that I swapped the picture. ;)

Give me some creative ideas to ensure that he never does this again.

May be a bit OT but I'm curious. How did you find this out? I'm curious to check my own server and see if anyone is hotlinking my pics.

Personally, I'd go to /b and find the most vile, disgusting thing imaginable.

Well, server crashed this morning. Upon rebooting and looking at server logs, I found the culprit.

I'm in the middle of "fixing" the problem.

It gets even better - found out that the offender has a few THOUSAND ebay postings with hotlinks with various accounts.

So are you going to do it or not? Because if not, let this thread die.

I just whipped up a quick animated gif, nothing to drastic.

Link to the guy's ebay stores - you can click on any one of his listings.

store 1

store 2

He has a few more stores floating around, as his server hosts about 15 domains.
