Replaced old link for recaptcha. Made a few tiny grammar edits so edit would accept.

comment Alternatives to Google Sites for a personal web site?
Sorry, there is one more alternative, which you might like: Github ! I am uncertain if you need a paid account. I haven't implemented it myself. It can be done through Github pages and with that Jekyll thing, or also in a much more primitive way that Daniel Messier wrote about. I'll get the links, be right back.

Oleg, I just thought of two others. LiveJournal, I tried that too, lisa-eve44.livejournal.com and use the free service. JavaScript is allowed to some extent, much more versatility than Wordpress, and I have not been negatively effected by spam or down-time. DNS pointing your domain might cost a little, not much.

@Oleg2718281828 I just read that post. Note that the victim posted the following as resolution ehsanakhgari.org/blog/2012-04-14/… His account was re-enabled in exactly 24 hours. And when asked why it happened, he responded ehsanakhgari.org/blog/2012-04-14/…

revised How do I redirect an English language URL to an Arabic language URL?
Needed to capitalize English and Arabic, as these are both proper nouns, and it is disrespectful not to capitalize them. Minor format changes in body, just to get past minimum edit req.

comment Difference betweeen hidden links and blogroll link kept hidden?
I have wondered about this too, for a long time! Partly because of SEO penalty like Matt Cutts said (though he also said it was a concern of the Federal Trade Commission, and the article was dated Aug 2007), but also, what is the purpose of having these private i.e. hidden links like this on the blogroll? Good question! I'm happy you thought of asking it!

comment Photos - do I really need to look for the author and ask his permission when posting them on my site?
What you described in your last paragraph is correct. But it isn't complicated, Flickr gives the details with every image.

comment Image hotlinking providers?
Imgur is a great image hosting site. There are limits for free usage, based on a maximum number of images or bandwidth, but I have been using it for just the sort of thing asked about, and have been very pleased. A paid account costs very little, and does remove quantity/ usage restrictions. Also, Imgur offers image editing with Aviary. It's a new-ish feature.

That website, JavaScriptKit, is excellent! It has all sorts of good things. Thank you. (You are everywhere, 609south... well, on SE, at least!)
