Grrr. Could somebody with a myspace account please send a message to this person for me? Here’s what it should say: “I’m really glad that you found my sock monkey tutorial useful. But don’t you think you could’ve just posted a link instead of hotlinking THIRTY-SIX images from my site? I had over 1000 image hits from myspace.com yesterday, and I pay for my bandwidth. That’s not cool. Plus you didn’t even give me credit for it anywhere. Did you somehow miss that line at the bottom every page that reads: ‘Copyright © 2004 Kristine Howard. Please do not reproduce without my permission.’? Seriously not cool.”
Update: WAIT! Hold the presses. I just realised that’s a myspace account, not a livejournal one (as I imagined it). I have a myspace account! I’ll email the offender myself.
One Hour Later: Well, the person killed the post. Fair enough.

Hey kris, why don’t you just redirect all those images to goatse?
That’s what I normally do actually (except I use this little gif instead), but I’m in a good mood today so I figured I’d give them a chance. I tried to contact the poster myself by they’ve restricted access to myspace users. Please let me know if any of you do manage to get a message through. If it’s not fixed up by tomorrow, I might have to get a bit more medieval on their ass.
Looks like it’s gone already.
That gif is awesome. You’re my hero.
That gif is cute. You missed an opportunity to have some fun. You could have replaced all the images with a fake tutorial that resulted in a hideously deformed sock monkey.
