Make hotlinkpics.com more powerful... what would be REALLY cool is this:
Make a form w/ all the AP pic ads (the hottest girls) -- allow the webmaster to use checkboxes to check all the pics that he likes the best -- then spit out a cgi code that we can use like this...
that cgi would rotate the pics that we checked in the form... the reason hotlinkpics.com sucks now is that the pics rotate w/o our control -- every time you guys rotate the hotlink pics I have to go to hotlinkpics.com and find the best pic for my site and change my HTML...
when new pics came out we could get an email notice or something -- so we could check off more girls into the rotation...
Also I would do experiments to see what pic rotations result in the most clickthroughs... I think that pic rotations DO work (I rotate my AP banner pics every 10 minutes).
Anyway hotlinkpics is a great service -- but if I had a little more control over which pics I was hotlinking -- I'd probably use it more...
The actual cgi code would be easy to write -- especially if the cgi code worked like this...
rotate.cgi?ID=xxx&(all the ID's of the pics that we want rotated)
then you wouldn't have to build a database for each webmaster's selections -- damn it would be easy -- I can see the only problem for you would be the CPU usage, but I think it would only be a few lines of code anyway...
I think this would make everyone more money...
