Image hosts that allow hotlinking
Xiong Chiamiov:
I saw Minus pop up on Hacker News today. Although I'm a bit pessimistic about their lifespan, they currently are offering uploads of up to 7 MB that stay up forever. They don't mention anything about hotlinking.

Do you know where to check how much bandwidth you're spending? It doesn't seem like my Princess release got my account closed. Unless you were talking about storage place, of course.'
Oh, and a question, what happens if you re-format your entire harddrive with Dropbox still installed? Your files do they need to be back-upped? Or can I just install Dropbox and then it'll download my files from their server?

If formatting deletes the files and the application, it probably should leave the files untouched. It's probably best to exit the program/uninstall the program before formatting in case it decides to remove all your files.

EDIT: fixed. it's imgur's fault, they had the code in reverse, that is, the one inside the IMG is the file link and the one in the URL is the image, dumbasses.
