I just had my site closed down because i think the website got too popular for my free webhosts liking lol and it didnt help that they where mass reporting me, they dont seem to like how popular this is becoming, so they reported me for using official Bandai and Gamefreak images which are free to use on fan sites anyway.....

Oh and that started with 000webshosting forbidding the images from showing up when posted on forums...after that they closed the account, so free hosting might not be the way to go if you want you site to become popular

idk, but I use models I have paid for or that have unrestricted use. I also have paid hosting that the scipt is run on.

I think if you post like this:

It will work.

But they wouldn't have the image as it levels. Brandon already said there is no way to directly call the images from the host.

RE: Images not showing

Hm, just updated my check.php (and subdomain) file and it looks like 'file_get_contents()' is also disabled. My users have decided that as a small workaround that they can copy/paste the image's url (using Right Click > Copy Image Location), but I'm hoping for a better solution.

RE: Images not showing

Your host sure has a lot disabled then. Are they a paid host?

RE: Images not showing

I have Dreamhost and when I asked them about the problem, they explained that it was because I had extra web secruity turned on when I created the domain. (It's on by default, so you'd have to turn it off when you create the folder or change it later.) They disabled it and tested the site and it works now. The extra secruity closes off a lot of PHP functions to prevent any type of hacker activity, but ends up creating a lot of problems too.

RE: Images not showing

Well, I'm sure most people don't mind things being disabled if they have no idea what it is. :)

It took my host a bit longer than I thought to get back with the issue.. So I'd suggest just trying to get a support ticket out there if at all possible. Even if it's free hosting, they'll sometimes edit things to help out customers.

Yep, I pay 51$/year for their best plan. I know include() has worked for my site before, so I guess I'm going to try that now.

RE: Images not showing

Readfile is only a security flaw if not properly implemented. I can assure you that it is perfectly safe on my script, however your host I'm sure has their policies.
