I am using TRUSTpunk's script for this. TRUSTpunk and I also registered our domains from the same people. Hence why Im kinda confused.

You're using a Dot TK to redirect? Many problems happen with Dot TK addresses.

Ok , did you create an A pointing for your
websites that will be forwarded using the
PHP script , you need to do that.

Edit: Nope he's not , my real Powered by main
website is about my favorite band The Offspring

Ohhhhh, ooookkkk.

So I make another enrty under IP pointing,
which should bring [whatever].200mg.net to
my ip address, which is where the script kicks
in.

But I still have my main problem. I still cant
get the referrer info.

Correct.

Why do you specifically say that you can't get the referrer information?

Quote:
What is an Alias (CNAME) record?

DO NOT USE ANY CNAMES UNLESS YOU UNDERSTAND THIS PERFECTLY.

You must be very careful when using CNAMEs! Please read this description carefully, as most people do not realize what CNAMEs actually do!

A CNAME is not the simple "deliver this A record instead of that one" mechanism that they at first appear to be when most people are first introduced to the concept. In fact, CNAMEs are intended to redirect all DNS based traffic for one domain to another. For this reason, it is a violation of the DNS protocol to have a CNAME and any other DNS record for the same domain name.

Here's why. It may seem a bit odd at first that if you have a CNAME redirecting "here.com" to "there.com", then that means you can't have a Mail Server (MX) record defined for "here.com" -- since that would be another DNS record for the same domain name "here.com" which is a violation. This is, in fact, the truth, and is also easily accounted for.

When an e-mail is sent to "root@here.com", the e-mail client requests the MX record for "here.com", and gets the CNAME instead. The e-mail client follows the CNAME to "there.com", and asks the DNS server at "there.com" for the MX record for "there.com"! The e-mail for "root@here.com" is then delivered to the mail server for "there.com", and that server had better be set up to handle e-mail for "here.com" or else that e-mail is going to get returned to sender!

It gets worse. Not all email clients understand this behavior of the DNS, so even if you set it up correctly, your email may get returned anyway! For this reason, if you set up a CNAME for the root of your domain, or if you set up a wildcard CNAME, you may not have any inappropriate MX records defined, and you will not receive technical support for e-mail related problems.

In addition, if your mail server is called "mail.anywhere.com", then you MUST NOT use a CNAME to define its IP address -- you MUST use an A record. Mail clients that send e-mail to "info@anywhere.com" will look for the MX record of "anywhere.com". They will discover that the mail server is called "mail.anywhere.com", and look for an A record. If a CNAME record is returned instead, the mail client will very likely not understand it, and return the e-mail to sender!

I think an A Record would be a better idea...

With an A record , you can only create one
on 123cheapdomains , I am allowed to create
sub domains from cnames and they point just
like real A records so you can't tell me thats a
violation , because I e-mailed the people.

Why can't you just change the name servers and use ZoneEdit?

Because I think that ZoneEdit uses only
www.my-site.com and not my-site.com

ZoneEdit uses both. It makes a root DNS record, and automatically makes a www with it. You can then begin to make as many subdomains as you want after that.

Here is what it should look like:

Now you also must have your name servers associated with your domain name:

Go into the control panel that your domain registrar gives you and change them to the ones ZoneEdit gives you.
