Im making a clan website, and i want to make a small dl database for it 
Just asking 4 permission, may i make it just links to ure page, so if someone clicks on it they get transported to the download of that program/map on Staredit.net?

You can link to the download page but if you try to link to the file itself you'll get a very rude message from Yoshi and it won't work. He is very anti-leeching.

Why would i link to the file? its much more confusing then just linking to page.

You'll notice at the side of the page:
We do this for many reasons. It is our bandwidth being used, so we want people to see where they're downloading from. Plus there is a discription, ranking, author info, submittion info, etc on that page.
QUOTE
We encourage everyone to take advantage of our map hosting and link to the download pages of their maps. You cannot link to the actual download, anti-leech is enabled.
You are fully premitted to link to the page of any file, but you will not be able to do it to the actual link of where the download starts (so anyone you link to here will have to press "I agree").We do this for many reasons.
