htaccess help...yep, I searched first :)

[MrYum]

Been messing with this all afternoon...driving me nuts...admittedly a short trip...lol.

Noticed in server logs that I've been fuskered...fuckers

Searched the board...read a LOT. Looked at Cleo's notes...thanks Cleo! Used the htaccess generator link on your page to generate the code.

The code seems to work...UNLESS I add the null referer line to allow browsers/firewalls that remove referrer header info.

This is the line in question:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$

Without that line...it works. Add the line...and the htaccess checkers show the test image.

Also worth noting...the code doesn't seem to stop fusker either way

I know there's some very tech savvy folks on this board...any assistance would be hugely appreciated.

Also, what's the consensus on adding an allow line so google can spider/cache images?
