Each of those people will download the 2.5k file at least once, and sometimes a multitude of times, and this adds up. I happen to have a rather nice bandwidth quota on my web server, but I also share that quota with my sister's baby site, and I certainly don't want to start paying over-use charges because some guy didn't have the presence of mind to get his own web directory somewhere.

What a huge pain. OI don't blame you for putting up that little barrier, and it is a pain. I'm not an expert on all that net linkage stuff, but does it tottaly hammer your bandwidth if people just put the link on their LJ or whatever? Maybe it's me or my computer or somthing but I can't see not a one of the images in your FFT gallery. I was going to Dload them to my computer for my own personal Image-Dictionary (im an artist) usage but I can't for obvious reasons. I was wondering if there was some way i could get them.
