When linking to one particular graphic site I keep getting a "400 bad
request" message and can't link. All other hyperlinking was fine. What do I
do?
 
Don't link to other people's (site's) graphics unless you have permission...it's bandwidth thievery - maybe copyright infringement as well. Some sites will block outside links, so that's maybe what's happening to you.

I would suspect the web master has disabled hot linking to images, which by the way is considered
bandwidth theft and can get you a nasty email from the web master and an abuse report filed with
your hosting company.
