Do you actually want to host them on your computer off your DSL line? It's actually not that difficult, but I'm not sure I'd recommend it for everyone. Your computer has to be on 24/7. Nothing I hate more than

You have 10MB of webspace on verizon you can use for hot linking.

If you just want to mess around, we can do that too, but you'll need a pocket protector.

Its not longer being a computer nerd to know about computers. You are just not up to date with normal technology.

I actually have a pocket protector! LOL
I had an account with a place for the past few years to host pics online and it went away unless you want to pay so that is why I am looking for something different. I did not think about if the computer is off so that is probably out.
Car domain is one of the things I see on sites that won't allow direct links or overused so instead of the pic you see a cardomain logo and I don't want to deal with that.
I guess I will look at Verizon to see what they have since I have there DSL.

Here are the instructions for Verizon that I sent to Marsh.

Go here and activate your webspace
http://netservices.verizon.net/portal/m ... ebspaceSSO

Then upload your avatar via ftp (100x100 I can help you resize)
ftp://ftpmysite.verizon.net/
-login with your verizon username and password

Then view your pic at
http://mysite.verizon.net/your-username/avatar.jpg
-Paste that line in your profile for your avatar.

Hey! You're not as dumb as you look!

Why you using that site builder BS? It's also a good idea to NOT put spaces in the names of pictures and other files. Use dashes.
