RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^
http://(www\.)?example\.com/dir/ [NC
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteRule \.(jpe?g|gif|bmp|png)$ images/nohotlink.jpg [L]

What do they mean by Ref (sic)? Is this a text file that I would have the ref domains listed in? I am linking with other pages now and do not want to screw myself by not allowing sites that shold be able to link. Or am I looking at this all wrong.
Oh one other thing, site when live last night and we got our first sale from two lesbians.
