Wow, you two posted at the same time as I did.
I learned Htaccess the hard way. Which is that someone hotlinked me as well.
I think I was set up the same way you are Exx, I have all my images in different directories.
After some thought I think keping all my images in one main directory is best.
I'm slowly going thru the process of putting all my images into one directory, and changing links to point to their new location. I figure I better do this before I end up with 150 pages.
