Hi I love the forum but i do have a question I was just wondering how come imagefour(4 istead of four)free image hosting doesn't work here? Just wondering. Thanks for the forum and keeping it asshat free.

I'm guessing you tried to link images from there and it didn't work?

In all likelyhood they have it blocked on their end, not ours.

If you want a list of websites where you can hotlink images here, check this link:

Actually, you can chalk this one up to collateral damage. The most common type of drive-by spam we get here is referral links (those "free ipod" type things) and "deals" sites which consist of nothing but referral links. We filter those domains to discourage a repeat performance and make any links they post useless.

4free.com was filtered, so image4free.com got squashed in the process. I've altered the entry to require either a www or http:// to precede that domain, so image4free.com should now work.

I checked it out, looks like a legit service and it says there are no restrictions on hotlinking. Some image hosting sites do restrict use and even block certain forums, going so far as to refer an objectionable image when someone tries to link there. In turn, we've had to block them to prevent that from happening here. We've also blocked image hosts which weren't secure and allowed overwriting. Say you upload a pic of your car and call it car.jpg. Someone else figures out that the host isn't secure and renames a goa-tse pic as car.jpg, uploads it, it overwrites your image and suddenly the car pic you posted becomes a gaping anus.

Thank you very much. Cause i would've hated to have to transfer all my images.

ahh, since he typed "image4free" in the title of the thread, I assumed it wasn't blocked.

It didn't occur to me that adding the .com on the end would/could change that.
