I have a very liberal attitude to folks borrowing images from my sites. Every day I get a few hundred hits from random sites that have posted an image they found here. Often these appear in bboard and blog postings. After a few days that traffic falls tends to peter out.

Occationally things get out of hand and I have to put up a fence. One side effect is that the image to the right won’t appear in those contexts where folks embed by RSS feed. (That’s an interesting fence design puzzle.)

That happen yesterday and this is the “failure” report from this morning’s stats.
