interpim Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Hi all... Here is my problem... I have a page that I wrote years ago in pure html, basically a bunch of pictures. I decided to download my server log and see what people were looking at, and it turns out that almost everyone on the internet is borrowing my bandwidth by hot-linking the pictures on that site. I want to make the images addresses to not be static to prevent this. Does anyone know a way of doing this? Or am I going about this the wrong way? P.S. I don't have access to my web servers .htaccess file and they will not let me upload any.

tippy_102 Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Are you able to run cron jobs? If so, I'd rename the directory of the stored images once a day.

interpim Posted January 5, 2008 Author Share Posted January 5, 2008 no I can't... But they do say they are working on allowing their users to use CRON. I use yahoo webhosting, and have been for about 6 or 7 years and haven't had any downtime so I like to stick with them Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/84501-dynamically-create-new-image-addresses-to-prevent-bandwidth-theft/#findComment-430970 Share on other sites More sharing options...
revraz Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 How many pages we talking? Can you just rename the folders now and break them all?
