how is it done?

 

so far, google seems to be the only search engine that specifically tells you how to rid their image bot. will adding a robots.txt file of:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /images

keep away all image bots and NOTHING MORE?

 

i don't want to keep the actual yahoo bot or anything from indexing my entire site... JUST the images folder. at this point i am not 100% keen on how robots.txt works.

will blocking these bots from /images make them like my pages less? will it serve them a 404 for all images, thus making them think my site is of less quality or something?

 

can somebody explain this to me?
