True. It's advertising for their site though.

http://www.blueovalnews.com/2004/xxnaias/mustang.htm

I removed the pics, you can veiw it there. If they don't want people viewing it there either, tough toenails, they should have secured the page.
I mean it's not my bandwidth so I really have no say in it or anything. I was just trying to make you aware of why they may have changed the address of the images.

Their homepage now states that they have removed them. But the xx page is still there
It moved though. The original picture links are different.

I'm well aware of this sort of thing works as I am a webmaster myself and I don't like people leeching off my bandwidth anymore than the next guy. Truth be told though, if BON is going to try and push out exclusive content, with their website name stretched across it, I'm not going to host it on my site and give them free advertising. :notnice: I'm not a big BON fan anyway. They are always out to get Ford into trouble. So forgive me if you're a fan, but I don't really care much if they get pummeled with users leeching. It's not hard these days to protect a directory and a site of their caliber should use it if they don't want people viewing things outside their parent site.

Is it really called Synus? Do you want your new SUV to have the same name as where you keep your snot?

I'm not a fan of BON. In fact I think watermarking images is stupid. But saying they are tricky for protecting their bandwidth is a different matter all together. I don't understand how you think I care about BON or their "exclusive content". But they are dumb for not protecting their directories.

If someone came to my site and ripped off all my photos and starting their own I'd be pretty upset. It's taken me a lot of hard work to get this site where it is and to get the photos I have. In fact, my first request for access to Ford's media site was denied. And if people are going to link to my photos on some other forum, I appreciate the advertising in return.

Topnotch you may want to take that picture off as Ford may get this site and muscularmustangs next because they are not messing around with the embargos

I can understand it from that point. But when the watermark is so big it blocks the picture it's almost a worthless to me. I would like to save the picture to send to people over aim or make wallpaper based off it but then I can't. I am in no way trying to pass off ownership of the picture, but I understand you must protect ownership for those who may try to pass it off.

Watermarking is probably the only thing I dislike about this site. But that is your choice to do; I believe if some other site had your pictures we would still be better. But once again it’s your site and these are my opinions so take them for what ever they are worth.

I'd like my email address staying.. but I don't mind if a site I post on puts their web addy on it.

Like Brad will atleast leave my name or addy on it when he's adding his web addy, which I don't mind at all

Convertible looks good. 18" fanblades look like they need to be on my car.

The Vert Looks GREAT! But they sure Ruined the Zephyr. It looks terible. It looks more like a Pimped out Toyota Camry. Not at all Elegant like the Show Car Concept from last year. :notnice:

OH MAN, THAT ZEPHYR IS SAD!!!!!

The concept looked tremendous. Why'd they even bother doing it? This thing is a completely different car.

If that's the best Ford could do, then the competition is probably ROFLAO right about now.
