thread_title:  Hotlinking 

message: From the article:
"For instance, let's say the developer wants to create a blue box that is 500 x 500 pixels wide and high. Instead of using a separate blue graphic that is 500 x 500 pixels (taking up additional bandwidth), the developer can specify the table cell background color and specify the dimensions of the spacer GIF that already exists."
This is a rather ridiculous example, since it would be trivial to create a 1x1 blue image and have it stretched to 500x500 using the height and width attributes of the img tag. I think this is original research on the part of the author. Ciotog (talk) 13:36, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
