I've had people direct link a ton of things from my site, but I usually don't do anything about it.
I don't want to have to enable hotlink protection since I actually direct link images from my site all the time. Anyway, I wanted to know if there's such a thing as a "hotlinking tracker" that tells you what site is direct linking your images and what image it is. I recently noticed that I've been getting a lot of hits from a livejournal entry, but it's friends only, so I don't know what image they're linking. I'm just curious about what it is. lol |

Honestly, your best bet is to just turn off hotlinking on all of your main images, and those you want to hotlink, just create a new directory, and edit the htaccess so that only that directory can be hotlinked and only for certain sites.
