For somewhere to put your pics on the net, just go to
www.lycos.co.uk and sign up for the free Tripod webspace. They give you 50mb which is enough for anyone and don't have any problems when you link images through. Also unlike a lot of other free hosts for forum images they don't put advertisments and other water-marks over your pics.
All you need to do once u have signed up is upload the picture or pictures you want using the webFTP tool on the site, preview the picture, right click on it to get the image's properties. From here copy the image's full address, and then use that with the 'IMG' button when you make a post on these very forums.
