: I don,t have a website.
: can I post an image?

Sign up for a free webpage from any of the dozens of internet sites that re giving them away. I use geocities.com. They are affiliated with Yahoo.com, and when you get a Yahoo e-mail account (also free) they give you information on how to use your free home page.

I ignore the homepage they give me. I just upload my images to the space they give me. All I need is the URL of the image (not the homepage) to link it to a posting on this BBS, so developing the homepage seems to be a waste of time.

Small photo files seem to work well. Keep the pictures under 500 pixels wide and most browsers can display them without scrolling. Use Jpeg compression to make downloading faster.

Hope this helps
