[thechat] .mac hosting - not quiet cut off

Here's an interesting thing. I have a couple of .mac (nee iTools) accounts
to host photos and auto-thumbnail them for me (one's for pics of the wee
man).

But being annoyed at Apple for price gouging on OSX 10.2, I hit back at
the other announcement the same day by not shelling out for .mac either.
Apple emailed me a couple of times with reminders that the time was
running out, and theoretically, it expired on Monday.

Yet take a look at

http://www.easyweb.co.uk/photos/morgan/teeth.html
all pulling photos off .mac space.

The original full size images are gone, yet the thumbnails are still
there.

Cheers
Martin
