Homestead wants you to pay
Geocities won't alow hotlinking
Hypermart has to be a buisness site
Webshots won't let other people see them when you hotlink

Arggggggggggg......

Are there any FREE ones that let you hotlink?

I get 70MB Free web space (10MB Per email account) for my Shaw cable modem connection. It works well.

I'm guessing you have to use thier ISP to get that....

Well the point really is that you should check with your ISP and see if they offer web space with your account and if they don't find one that does.

Or of course, suffer from both my ISP's, which are so determined to prevent people from using space in order to costcut, don't tell you how to use it.

There are HUNDREDS (literally) of free web hosting sites. Just do a search on yahoo or google. If you need something that has PHP or MySQL support (these are usually good ones), go to http://hosts.php.net/ - you can search based on various criteria.

Mine sucks. For twenty bucks a month, they graciously offer me nothing.

Two goddamned megs. Fricking Telenet-CapitalNet merger. Two megs. I couldn't host a thumbnail gallery of greyscales with that.

At least geocities hasn't wised-up to htms that aren't more than a set of <img> tags. Yet.

I've gotta go wandering around looking at 50megs and Iwarp. Buddies at Polykarbon use those, and they post many pictures.

Not only can I use my University's webspace (drag-n-drop to a directory in my area, hehe), I have a few GB from a side project. Ah well :P

t35 looks to be just about better than some pay sites... This is really a great server. Thanks, Mistar#.
