I am a private person, paying for my bandwidth. I can only handle a limited amount of giving away my stuff for free.

As I said above, I did this to prevent people using a 700KB image to then scale it from 1600×1200 to 200×200. I have a small version of the image right where those people got the big one. Do the math, I am already getting 1GB a day, thats 30GB a month. Will you pay me for those 30GB? Just because people are too dumb to use the small images?

You want to use this on a regular page and ask me before using it? Fine, you are on the list.

You want to link to the image? Just link to it

You want to embed the image in your homepage without giving credit where you got it and whose money you are blowing out. Forget it

I can not see where this is breaking the internet. Taking without giving credit. Pretending to have done something using other peoples work. Thats breaking the internet.
