Ok, my boomspeed account got shut down and thats where i stored my midis, i found another place, stored my midi there and PMed matt-windu. He said he changed it. Ok, I go to check out my profile, and I see it doesnt work. I'm wondering if I could just get rid of it and get at least SOME of the points back that I spent for the MIDI profiel (It'd be uber nice if I could get all of them back!)
Please,
AcrylicGuitar

Your new hosts don't allow hotlinking. PM me again when you find one that does.

I checked, and all places I found dont allow that "hot linking". I mean, a MIDI profile doesnt matter much to me anymore. Can I just have it removed and get my points back please?

try netfirms.com.
Any chance I can get the location of my MIDI changed?
I thought there would be an option in your profile to change it. (like user title) but I was wrong. :(

No, you may not have your credits back. You bought a midi, work with it. You want to be cool like merc, right?

ONLY if netfirms.com offers hot linkin', if not, then it'd be really nice if I could just get at least 300 creds back. :)

and guess what? It works for midis too.
Also, you're right, I go around to every poster that annoys the crap out of me and check their sig image urls so I can figure out how I can fool hotlinking on free hosting sites. You know, just as a hobby.

Yes, the .txt trick is great, but I'll be damned if I've ever been able to explain it to people in 3 posts or less.

Yea, I mean, some people are not good at computers, what so ever. I have a friends, She has a windows. That is all she knows. I told her to check something out once, and I told her to go to 'My Documents' ........she didnt know where that was...I told her to go on her desktop. And she didnt even know what her desktop was :(

Just overwrite your old midi with a file that's named the same thing.
Example: The current address is http://www.geocities.com/blah/nooneknows.mid.
Find the midi you want, let's say it's justagirl.mid. Rename it to nooneknows.mid, upload, done. Midi changed.

It also doesn't work on several browser types.

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/one.minute.silence/stuff/midi.mid
Since the midi directory is mostly empty now. Plus it's a lot easier to rename files to midi.mid instead of an actual other file's name. :snear:
