<br>You don't want to expose to your users where the files are really<br>stored - that's an internal detail.<br><br>Just do it as <a href="http://img.domain.com">img.domain.com</a> (or really better as <a href="http://img.domain.net">
img.domain.net</a> or<br>some other domain that doesn't get cookies from your main site).</blockquote><div><br>Good one ! <br><br>In the same spirit, you can have <a href="http://img1.domain.net">img1.domain.net</a> and
<br><a href="http://img2.domain.net">img2.domain.net</a>, but as aliases to <a href="http://img.domain.net">img.domain.net</a>, as it'll<br>let browsers get images in parallel and thus speed up overall<br>page loading if you have many images (browsers limit themselves
<br>to 2 parallel connections to the same host) ... I seem to<br>remember the sweet spot was 2 to 3 different hostnames, not<br>more...<br><br>Can't find the study I got that from though - maybe it's in there<br>somewhere :
