secondly it's a microsoft bitmap image. Those images are huge and i think people would be well pissed of if you posted an inline bmp here, save it as a jpeg instead please.

Oh my, it's been two months since I've posted this, and I forgot about that piece of art. It's not even in BMP format anymore; I had converted it in PNG and deleted the other one. It was meant to make fun of the 'Made with Frontpage' picture on the website. Anyway, here it is:

Do you know of a better host than Geocities? I had bandwidth problems when I posted some screenshots. I'm making a website, and I don't know squat about web hosts.

well a lot of image hosts are shutting down now. i used to use boomspeed although they only allow free offsite image hosting if you are either using your pictures in online auctions or else your pictures are of the US flag. They also enable you to host your site for free so long as it's under 1M.

I like netfirms.com to be honest. 25M of free space, and one banner ad along the top of each page, and that's it. Proper ftp access, also you get perl, and you can pay them to upgrade with php, more space and no ads etc.

Personally i use xcalibre.co.uk though, they kick ass, since they run a linux cluster, and they are run from livingston too, so they're mostly scottish, which i think is a good thing! :-D
my site at www.polytheism.org.uk as well as the board at http://openopen.cjb.net is hosted with them. they're not free but you get tons of goodies with the basic account like full linux shell account, the capability to list open directories etc.

Thank you very much, Calum. I have just registered to netfirms.com, and it looks great!

As for an image host, I guess I can just post the pictures via Netfirms until I can find one.
