I think it has most of the features I am planning on adding for now, but there are still some bugs fixes and interface improvements that need to be done.

In this version I have added a really nice Image Hotlinking Protection feature, which will let you either display a image to hotlinkers or send a 403 (access denied) message. It also lets you either allow or deny access to the specified domains.

Just a few notes: if you are a blogger or offer any type of RSS feed I highly recommend leaving the default “deny access” option. If you only allow access from certain domains your RSS readers may not be able to view your images in their readers. But by using deny access you can block hotlinkers (you can find out who is hotlinking to you by using a script like Thiefinder)

If you like the htaccess generator, please share it, Stumble it, Digg it, etc. Spread it around, you know you want to. ;)

If you want to stay up to date with the generator but don’t much care for my blog posts, I have created a RSS feed for the updates. You can subscribe to it here.
