BANDWIDTH THEIF....

RT

The icons on the left of our webpage, the pictures that we put on to view are all put on the website by companies that rent us bandwidth. Bandwidth is memory that pictures use up. Normally, the webpage use about 5% of the bandwidth I have purchased so we have plenty of space and never run out... Until yesterday. Someone found one of our pictures to their liking and using the code that displays that picture on the website linked it to their own site and increased the traffic to see that picture so much that it ran us out of bandwidth. That resulted in our company shutting us off and a complete loss of all our pictures and icons.

So this morning I began removing all the recent pictures in an effort to stem the tide. If it doesn't abate the theft the site will probably lose some pixs for awhile until we can change things around a bit. So if you see printing where an Icon was you can click on it and it will act like a normal icon... until we can straighten this out.
