You dumbass. God some people are just stupid. It is people like you that cause companies like Geocities and Angelfire to STOP offering FREE webhosting. BTW, your skin sucks.

Direct linking is what lazy and stupid people do...I mean, Angelfire offers 20 MB of space (and that's a lot for a free server) and they offer good web hosting. People these days just don't get it. But anyway, great note, it made me think.

Whateverisay, please contact me! My teenage daughter wants to create a blog of her own, and she fell in love with your Alone Time skin when she saw it last night. Today she asked me to download it for her, and we found that it was gone. She's terribly disappointed. I understand your reasons for removing your skins from this site and I absolutely agree with them. Please send me e-mail so I can beg and plead and offer you various bribes in return for a copy of Alone Time. My daughter really adores it, and, as a doting father, I would really like to obtain it for her. Thanks.

I have never tried the free sites; however, they claim to offer free hosting. I guess it would have to be tested. Regardless, image hosting can be found for virtually nothing. eSmartStart offers free hosting and FTPing (which means Blogger users could use it AND avoid Blogger's banner ads) and MonitorLine offers image hosting for a one-time fee of $12 and Ranchoweb offers 1 MB of image hosting for $9.95/year.

In the big scheme of things, those are very inexpensive options, especially considering what is likely to happen if more designers are faced with this issue and decide to remove/not create skins because of the it.

I really hope this doesn't happen. I know how much time you put into hand-coding your skins, and I also know you don't make skins because you need them, but rather to offer them to others. It's admirable, and to see it stop because of a problem that users can easily address would be a huge disservice to all of the people who currently follow 'the rules.'

i was thinking about deleting all my skins too! i'm so sick of people not uploading the images to their OWN servers...only about TWO people have put them on their own sites...

Hey, i was wondering are those sites you named really FREE to host images on?? like, can people store an image on those and then use that image on their blog?? i think geocites blocks that....no??
