Flickr Stats

Flickr can be a confusing bird sometimes. Especially when it comes to stats.

This image below, for some unknown reason has had almost 900 views. It's a pretty poor photo (In retrospect, not sure why I keep it on my photostream) - the Flickr stats just show that it gets 10-15 hits per day. I tried to find if someones site is hot-linking it, but no luck there.

Flickr just lists the hits as coming from an "Unknown Source". After some investigation about that, various help articles say it could be sites hotlinking but use some sort of way to block the actual location of the page.

I'm considering removing it from Flickr, primarily becuase it's just not a shot that is up to my current standards, but also because it's clearly being linked somewhere without my permission. BUT... it generates a lot of traffic to my Flickr. Catch-22 if you ask me.

What do you think? Remove it? Keep it? Should I not be so sensitive about this?
