Andrew, it's a statue. Of a guy named David. :-)

It's NOT Ferrari related, it's a little used part of this site where Rob posted the pics of his wedding trip.

Rob,

You need to have a robotos.txt file on the main directory of the server. This file can dictate what search engines' "spider" does (or does not) do. Here is what my basic robots.txt file looks like for one of my websites:

User-agent: vscooter
User-agent: DittoSpyder
User-agent: Googlebot-Image
Disallow: /

It disallows Google's Image indexing. Check the web for hints, tips and tricks on how to make a robots.txt file that will do as you wish. Hope this helps you my friend.

Enjoy the Drive,

Steven R. Rochlin

Damn Rob, you're right. Page two of the search results, there you are. Nice pic of David by the way. And the F50. And the F40. And the GTO.

This is funny, I've tried hard to keep FerrariChat.com off the search engines. I figure we'll have higher quality users by just advertising in Ferrari mags and word of mouth. However, using "Statue of David" as a search string in almost any crawler you'll get FerrariChat.com within the first two pages. Layered deep into FerrariChat.com under Links, FerrariChat.com, and then Rob's wedding you can find a picture of "Statue of David." Pretty funny, here's some other things that lead people to FC from search engines, not any of them with the Ferrari name in it...
