I quit checking my website stats with any regularity a couple of months ago when the referral links started to become top-heavy with spoofed spam and porn and I could no longer tell which, if any, were legitimate links.

I should probably start checking them again. Turns out, I’ve had a bandwidth thief on my hands, posting a picture from my website to half a dozen online bulletin boards. It’s not an original picture, and it’s only a small fraction of my bandwidth, but it’s the principle of the thing. Bandwidth thieves must die. So now this photo has been replaced by this photo. It’s probably too late to make any difference, but I’ll leave it up for maybe a week before deleting it from my directory entirely.
