When you say hot link, excuse my ignorance do you mean when you get the URL for an image on another site from the properties option of that image and post it as an image here?

Yes.

Arh whoops sorry do that a lot. I'll go sit on the naughty step...

I think that thread has now been defused. ;)

See:

Me nae ken whit that boring stuff is talking aboot. It's all IT dept. wank- what's the bloody point of the internet if ye need to be an IT banana to work it?

That link to the wiki article you provided- is that a hotlink itself, or not?

Nope that's a link.

Thinking about it that is actually the ultimate in deep linking:

Something content providers got their panties in a knot about for a while but I think most people realise that stopping that kind of thing is silly (you'd have to provide a general link and directions on how to reach a specific page).
if I went 'round saying I was an Emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!
