RewriteRule (.*) /images/ebayscam.jpg [R,L] what does that do? -- "I know what you're doing.

Steve I'm a PC, so shut up Consultant join:2001-03-10 Yorba Linda, CA	said by superman : what does that do? It says that when a request for the file dcp_0252.jpg (Kasia's pretty lake photograph) arrives other than when referred from her own website, it sends a different image: /images/ebayscam.jpg. This means the image works fine in her own gallery, but those who leech the image get something else. I suppose it could have been more fine-tuned by looking for "match eBay referrer" rather than "anything other than my own referrer", so this breaks any other links that might be out there now.
