Never pass up an opportunity to go to the bathroom.

when, You might need them to empty your bedpan.

I don't think you can :-/ Put the pic onto a hosting site, photobucket seems popular, I've never used it though

It is possible to link directly to your computer, using Web Server Software you also need to setup up DNS to point to your "Static IP" address, many are dynamic & this can cause problems.
But, it's complex to setup and it's even more complex to ensure security. Add the fact that you have to be constantly connected to the net & any pages, images & text you choose to host will use your internet connection bandwidth it's really not worth the hassle when you can simply upload your files to your own webspace provided by your ISP or use one of the many free hosting companies.0 -

I felt the same way the first time I built a PC based web server!

So is there an easy way to do this as I would like to know also. ::)
You mention Photobucket, but how does that work. ???
I'm sorry but some on us need it to be spelt out in laymans terms.
Thank You to who ever can help out here.

- Put the photo you want to use on your desktop
- goto tinypic
- click 'browse' then select your pic in the menu that appears
- click 'host it'
- It'll upload it and tell you the url for your picture (at the bottom)
It gives you three versions of the link. The bottom one with [ img ] tags can be pasted right into a thread here
photobucket is just the same except you register first and get to keep an album of pictures
The pic should be a small file like a jpg or they'll resize0 -
Thank You sra555 for a quick reply, I will have a bash at this tomorrow as eyes abit tired now and think they are hinting to go to bed ;D but cuppa tea first.
Thank You again sra555, will let you know how I get on 0
