Are you saying remote thumbs was the first and only service to do what you accomplish?

You have a nice service, but why would you accuse this guy of copying?

Not at all a copy of Remotethumbs , I've never even used
Remotethumbs. Infact the ThumbBooster system itself predates
Remotethumbs by 3 months!

Remote thumb hosting was added because some of our trade
system users asked for it.

If you must know, ThumbBooster was an expansion on the
idea of BlingThumbs and the remote hosting was modeled more
on what Choker and Carlos were doing a full year before you
introduced Remotethumbs.

Don't worry, until Remotethumbs has EVERY sponsor and EVERY
FHG in the system, there is room for the TGP webmaster to use
both.

Cheers!

Ok Joesho,

I've spent the morning looking at Remotethumbs. I'm only
further confused by how ThumbBooster would be a copy.
Remotethumbs doesn't even remotely host the thumbs,
it does a daily download to local storage. ThumbBooster's
remote thumb hosting option, is a true remote hosting of
the thumbs.

How do you justify 5% when you're just a click clearing house?
We came up with 5% to pay for the bandwidth consumed by
actually hosting the thumbs for the users of the system.

Cheers!

Ok, you're going to have to fill me in here... The only way I can
see an iFrame include as a problem is if we were to put malious
code into the the called HTML. Now how long would be running
if we did that? Our business model does not include dialer
installs to people running old unpatched IE.

We can wrap it in javasc**pt if it gives you a warm fuzzy.
