Just a few do's and don'ts « Result #5 on Nov 6, 2008, 12:28pm »
As with all things, there are a few rules for this forum.
1. Grammar and Spelling - When you're posting a question, try to use your best English. We respect that English may not be your first language, but do your best. If we can understand your question easily, we can answer it faster. Also please do not use what is commonly known as text speak.
2. Don't bump - If you haven't received a reply for a few hours or even a day, please don't make another post begging for help. Some helpful members don't like to see this and won't help. Just wait patiently. If you haven't received a reply for 72 hours, you may bump your topic.
3. Be polite - If you have good manners and are not demanding support, you'll find that more members are happy to help. If you're typing ALL IN CAPITALS, chances are you'll be considered rude. If you say "Thanks in advance" rather than "Tell me how to do this", you're guaranteed to get more respect from other members.
4. Your Topic Title - When you're selecting a title for your topic, you'll find that "HELP MEEEE!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!" doesn't tell helpful members what your topic is about. Now if you use a calm, descriptive title such as "Where's the best place for a drink in Sutton Bridge?" that describes your question/problem well, things will be made easier for both you and the members trying to help you.
5. Don't! - Use profanities, racial remarks or anything that is likely to be offensive to others. You do, and you'll find you are banned.
That goes for any form of unauthorised commercial advertising. You'll find your IP will be banned. You may use our links section to promote your loal business/charity etc... but not rubbish for a free wii fit or lotto syndicate which is basically spam.
Hotlinking and Bandwidth theft « Result #6 on Nov 5, 2008, 10:48am »
HOTLINKING AND BANDWIDTH THEFT
Hotlinking and Bandwidth Theft Explained
Bandwidth refers to the amount of data transferred from a web site to a user's computer. When you view a web page, you are using that site's bandwidth to display the files. Since web hosts charge based on the amount of data transferred, bandwidth is an issue. If a site is over its monthly bandwidth, it's billed for the extra data or taken offline.
Laymans terms: Copying and pasting ANY graphic from ANY site other than your own is hotlinking/bandwidth theft unless you have permission from the creator to do so.
When you copy n paste someone's images you are using up their bandwidth...this means you are possibly causing them money if they pay for their hosting accounts. If their bandwidth is exceeded, not only will they have to pay more for their images to show up in the future---but you will start seeing red x's or "image not found" messages where ever you have copied n pasted the tags.
What can happen to you if you hotlink?? Most websites do NOT allow hotlinking (again they are paying for that space) and there's no telling what kind of email you will get or any thing else that they might try to do to you. But in the case of tags and such...If I knew someone was intentionally hotlinking my images, I would delete the image they hotlinked--put a new image with the exact same file name with a nasty message..that way everywhere they copied n pasted my tags--they would see that message and NOT the tag they planned on. Is that nasty? yea, but if you were expecting a "Welcome" tag and instead got a "Kiss My Butt" tag, you would think twice about doing it again, right?
Hotlinking and bandwidth theft is NEVER the right thing to do...NEVER. If you see an image on a site that you want, first of all make sure the site is giving you permission to snag the images--and secondly save it to your computer and upload it via your MSN photo album, Photobucket, or whichever hoster you use. If you are not going to take the time to read web site rules, then you really should not be snagging in the first place.
How can you tell if an image has been hotlinked?? You can right click on any image and hit Properties..that gives you the HTTP addy of where the image is hosted. For example it would look like http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v335/madlyn/TAGS/dimapregnant dog1.gif
I can tell thats hotlinked because it clearly states madlyn in the http addy, thus it is hotlinking and using up my bandwidth.
In the case of MSN photos that are shared, its a little trickier to tell if its been copied n pasted, but same thing applies, right click, properties and if the image ends in the same letters/numbers as the original image--then its been hotlinked.
Think about it like this...if everyone in MSN groups snagged a tag, then copied n pasted it without saving to their own computer first, how many tags would actually show up as they were intended too?? Only those tags hosted on MSN more than likely.
Bandwidth theft is NEVER the right thing to do. Pass it on!
Heritage tours « Result #8 on Oct 25, 2008, 1:54pm »
My family thoroughly enjoyed the last heritage tour where they were taken inside the bridge whilst it swung, underneath the bridge to see the workings. They saw the accurate meccano model which was made of the bridge and also went across to the green tower on the traffic roundabout which is what powered the swinging of the bridge before it was modernised. It also used to power the turntable from the old railway station. They had a brill time and I really recommend it. Look out for signs near the bridge when they plan the next one!
