Do Not Post Images From Rotten.com and Foo.ca

[A CA Guy]

Sorry, I was hoping that would not happen. That is a link a friend put up and I guess they block calls from FR.

Maybe open a new window, paste it in their outside of FR and it might appear!

Try saving the image to your own server and reposting.

I, as a frequent poster of images (but not from there), had absolutely no idea someone like rotten.com could actually substitute; the more I learn about this business, the more I realize how little I know....just damn!

Hi, ErnBatavia, I've just started posting after lurking for a while and have images I'd like to post but don't know how to do it. I'm with you, the more I learn the more I realize how much I don't know. I appreciate the Moderator's warning about this. Is there someplace on FR that explains how to safely post images?

Boy, to see the nastiness and downright hatred shown on this particular thread, makes me think I am on DU. It is especially bad because of the subject of this thread.

Server image swapping is pretty common now-a-days and moderator explained it pretty good.

Keep in mind folks, we have a LOT of Liberal moles on FR that are here just to disrupt and cause problems. In other words, attempting to bring FR DOWN to the du level. Some have been here for years.

If you watch carefully, you can pick them out.

The best thing to do: Ignore them. Libs just cannot handle being ignored, just like they cannot handle the truth. "Can you handle the truth?"

Of course, this is only my opinion!!

We have our own Sandbox here at FR, but I reccommend Dave's Site
Click on his HTML: An Interactive Tutorial for Beginners

But I guess some like Glenn think I am lying. That is their perogative.

No, it appears Glenn may be having some difficulty saving more than one URL in his bookmarks at a time.

I simply tire of the Puritannical brigade on FR that believe the rest of us actually need instruction on where we go and what we do.

Ah, but perhaps you do. See, the great thing is that there is the actual website, http://www.rotten.com, that you can save in your personal bookmarks. Then you can look at images of mangled humans and anomalous porn anytime you want with a simple click - and no puritans to harp on you.

Or is there some element to your fetish requiring that said images be viewed off-site?

Oh sheesh, never mind, I see what you mean. (slapping self)

Slap me...I still don't get it!

You're a shining example of one of the principle truths of childhood -- Negative attention often feels better than no attention.

Post 17 is what makes me think he was saying I was fibbing.

"Mon Dieu, The sheriff accidentally cataloged Mr Jackson's race as black. Can't law enforcement get anything right."

Ah ....... but did you forget? California is a "whatever suits you and feels good at the time" state.

BTW ....... what would you classify this bast ....... er uh ... misfi ....... wier I mean stran uh guy [Mr.?] Jackson as?

Don't sweat the nastiness thrown our way. It goes with the role. Some people just object to the moderators, and as such suspect everything we do must be somehow corrupted. It's part of the job, and we pretty much expect it and are used to it.

"The above link is good for maybe 15 days. It is the picture I am talking about."

Thanks for the thought.

I was too late, but I thank you.

He's been blinded by what he thinks are your attempts at censorship. He's got free reign to go anywhere he wants on the internet and see whatever is there for the offering.

Thanks, Tooters..I'll 'caffeinate' & check it out!

[TexasCajun]

...ya'll still at it!

Geeezzzz

[arjay]

Who are you mad at? No one was picking on you. Why so grouchy?

This works both ways, too!

DU had linked to one of my Houston FReeper images and were saying nasty things about us. I manually swapped the image. 'Bout halfway down the page. . .

"had absolutely no idea someone like rotten.com could actually substitute"

Neither did I. I learn something new everyday around here.

Thanks for sharing that handy tip with all of us!

[sweetliberty]

"Many sites use this ability to tell what page generated the request for an image in order to substitute another image, so that people don't post their images and use their bandwidth."

Okay, admittedly, I don't understand how these things work, but I would think that they would WANT the hits on their site....or does looking at a picture on their site not constitute a hit?
