There are plenty of image hosting websites available. If you use them, you can show your image on this forum using the [IMG] tags. Very easy to do.

The easy one that I use is photobucket.com. It's not the greatest quality of them all, but I've been using it for 10+ years so its nice to still access all those photos I've uploaded over the years and add more.

I use PB. I think I had problems loading pics that way but was able to load from the computer so I used that. I have several pics loaded up on 944 on line. I will have to try to link pics from there again and see what happens.

I use imgur, it's simple and loads quickly and reliably. No limits on image size.

Same here, and when uploading you can choose file/pic size.

If you are not a member, you have very limited upload capacity. Smack down the $18 smackers for membership and upload all ya want!

You don't need a file host like for some other sites. Just click on "go advanced", then "manage attachments" and you can choose the file location on your computer. Still, however, reduce the file size first or you will end up posting super mega-sized pics.
