Gives some basic instruction. PhotoBucket has limitations on size, bandwidth, and morality.

TheFreeSite.com
Free image hosting list
http://www.thefreesite.com/Free_Image_Hosting/
lists many image hosting sites, some aren't so moral.

http://bayimg.com/cloud
Allows almost anything. Animated GIF files don't work here.

You are quite welcome.
I wish she was a little bigger... about 5'5", 42-26-38, naked beside me, and willing, would be perfect.

The maximum size for an avatar is 175x200 pixels.
We really need to sticky that info somewhere obvious. Unless of course we're moving to the new forums anytime soon... :sarcastic:

There is a save button at the bottom that must be clicked after the link is added.

sion I copy and paste what appears in the (right click) properties {Address:} window of the image. I do not use PhotoBucket any longer because they were to stingy with their band width. You will eventually loose access.
