Nobody's paying attention

After some minor wrangling, I managed to get my image-hotlinking prevention access rules (based on these instructions) working properly sometime last week.

I still see the dozens of requests referred from various myspace.com profiles in my logs, but the percentage of total traffic by byte is way down relative to the number of requests. It’s obvious that nobody is paying attention to what happens when they try to include the images. I’m seeing profile after profile with broken images in the comment boxes where they’d hoped my images would be.

Ha. I win.
