Imageproxy

Published April 24th, 2006, updated February 29th, 2008.

This is a caching and scaling proxy for images that are accessible via http. It is designed for the use in weblogs where you want to refer to images on foreign hosts without the need of manual mirroring or scaling. After an initial fetch, the (scaled) pictures remain in the local cache directory. It is tried to reload the image when the cache expires, otherwise the old image is delivered.

  • Hi Mr. IT professional :) , to be honest with you i aint no expert in computers & Computer related stuff but i have a question if i may :).
    as far as i understood , this "Imageproxy" script allows you to refer to an image in website A meanwhile the same image will show on the page of website B , now my question is : is it possible to use this script in an inappropriate way e.g to steal visitors via the image in site A and put them in your website B ??

    thanks in advanced.
