Well, it appears that Geocities has discovered the txt image trick. Bastards. BTW, why won't they let remote links work?

Oh well. I don't use Geocities anyway.

Wait, it says it has exceeded its allocated data transfer, come back in an hour. Maybe there's still hope?

remote linking causes trafic which they dont get paid for and which slows down their pages.

Yeah, that happens. You might try getting multiple accounts and spreading the bandwidth around.

My whole crappy website does not work right now; I hope it will be up later.

Well, I was able to post a geocities .txt link perfectly.

It even got a thread locked...

Excellent *rubs hands together with glee*.

I don't remote-link out of my Geocities webpage (I use it because it's free), and it seems to be working fine.

i didnt say that anybody should bother. i replied to the question why geocities would not allow hotlinking. that´s all. i personally dont give a damn if geocities gets money since i´m not in possesion of any yahoo stocks.
