umm CreatineGuy if you want to call anyone a idiot you should look in the mirror. Just because a site offers RSS doesn't mean you can steal the feeds to use on your site.

RSS does not trump copyright laws. RSS is just a syndication tool not a free pass to steal content.

RSS feeds are offered in many cases for users whom read via RSS readers. However it doesn't mean you can just plug the feed into your site and steal the content without permission.

jscott if the guy is hot linking your images, that's a easy enough fix.. Just make a image that says.. "this content stolen from "yourdomain.com" and make a htaccess entry to stop his hot linking.

Then report the site to blogspot.
