it is confusion making - some charge is on the site that serves the pic, as well as the site that hosts it - if the pic is hosted away from here, it still hasta be 'commanded to appear' by the bolt server if it is directly inline, and with the asp or whatever setup is used, the bolt server has to integrate it into the page served to the viewer, somehow, even if only supplying the extra lines in the scripting here, so there appears to be some additional 'byte load' added to the bolt

charges are for amount of bandwidth allotted as well as number of bytes transfered - however it works, Peg did say once that they learned the hard way that inserting inline pics gets more expensive fast!
