Fool sets self up

In looking over my website stats, I noticed an unusual number of hits from this website. I noticed how his background image looked suspiciously familiar, so I did a little research (by looking at the source for his home page) and discovered he is linking back to my website for the fractal image that is his background.

Well, this was too good to be true! I merely changed the original fractal image to add some text (click this link to see the altered image) so this guy's friends will know that he was hacked.

What he should have done was copied the image to his own website, and I would not have been the wiser. I don't mind others appropriating my content (otherwise I would not have posted it in the first place), but they should be kind enough not to mooch off my bandwidth.

I hope the grasshopper learns his lesson. Nothing personal, dude.
