IMPORTANT NOTE:

If you do not want to be embarrassed by awkward signs showing up on your site instead of the image you have displayed, then DO NOT use our image URLs. Periodically, we change our image's names and replace them with one of these, shown below. If you are using our URLs instead of your own, a "Bandwidth Theft" sign may show up on your site when you least expect it.

We have a site tracker and logs that show us the exact pages where our images are being displayed. Sites stealing bandwidth will be reported to their website, message board, email and/or auction host service providers! Please read their rules, and terms of service. Most of them suspend members permanently for bandwidth theft. Please upload images to your own server. Please DO NOT use our image URL on your pages.

Thank you!
