Please read a post more carefully before responding. I did not ask what I
should *not* do. (I know that very well). I asked how it *should* be done, without posting an image to a non-binary NG. Strictly negative responses are a worthless waste of bandwidth. -- Walter www.rationality.net - "Carolina Breeze HVAC" wrote in message ... "Walter R." wrote in message ...

The simplist manner is to use the free webspace that is provided by your local ISP if its worth a damn, and to use any of the various free FTP programs that allow you to search your computer for the files and pics that you wish to transfer to the local space provided at no cost to you by your ISP.. Simple, and cheap....any other questions that you want to rehash over and over and over again and waste all that bandwidth?

Greetings Walter,
If you just have one or two sets e-mail them to me and I'll slap it up for you and give you a URL. If you have many more you can get a free webpage or pay for a cheap hosting plan. I make no suggestions but you can find an example free site at: http://www.doteasy.com/ Hope this helps, William |

TinyURL filtered a nasty website for me, so hat's off to them.

More FUD... I prefer to look before I leap. Others may also.... You can't! Any URL can be redirected from any server. Services like notlong.com, snipurl.com, littlelink.com, etc., are simply redirection services, so you *know* you are being redirected by examining the URL. But even an innocuous URL can be hijacked or redirected, and it is this type which is most insidious. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 7.1 iQA/AwUBQu6qSQIk7T39FC4ZEQIVDACg7rfCQlwIySkwApq4Sm7fG2 ohiRsAoIPS 7rUhiL23eJdoOBFHSgZ9vZb+ =bVWu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- -john wide-open at throttle dot info |

This really has been thrashed to dust over the years. Try DAGS first.
RTFM and all that. Besides, English has potential for word-pictures. See Conrad, Sandburg, Lincoln, etc. TTFN, J |

It varies, actually. If you have a personal web site,
which it sounds like you do not, you could just put it there, and give a link here to that page. There are also "free" (advertising based) web sites, plus, even better, places that will let you put your pictures up and then give links to them. My daughter uses one at msn.com, I know Yahoo has one, and several others I'm not aware of. If you do a search on Google for "upload picture" +free +link or some similar variation, you will probably get at least enough hits to allow you to forumlate a better search. I'm surprised people haven't come in and given some URLs to these places; there are a lot of them. If you don't have luck soon, come back and re-ask; I can look up some specific URLs to try. Better if you try on your own though; then you can't blame me if it's not just what you want g. HTH Pop "Walter R." wrote in message ...

Thanks to all of you who were helpful.
Actually, I have several websites. But, they are complex and I prefer not to mess them up just to upload one image. Thanks to your suggestions I found a free site where people can post their photos: http://www.imageshack.us/ I will give them a try. There are others. -- Walter www.rationality.net - "Walter R." wrote in message ... Sometimes it is helpful to display a photo in conjunction with a query at this NG.

You just upload the jpg file to a directory in the page somewhere and then post the URL in the newsgroup. You need not make a reference to the hyperlink on the webpage to store something there... you only have to post the complete URL for the photo in the newsgroup. As far as normal visitors to your website go, they won't have a clue the picture's there for the downloading. Only the folks who click on the hyperlink in the newsgroup will see the picture. -- Mortimer Schnerd, RN VE |

And if direct linking is blocked (referrer field required), then to have to embed each image in a html wrapper, and link to the html page instead of the image itself, can quickly become tedious and monotonous. A workaround is to use .htaccess files, and allow direct linking only to certain directories. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 7.1 iQA/AwUBQu6sXgIk7T39FC4ZEQLEIgCg0+LPQqhwz6MAirptFwXyCn z64R8An0RD o9z8zzCXa11KUdeK9pjPX36v =5xN3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- -john wide-open at throttle dot info |

On Wed, 3 Aug 2005 09:19:04 -0400, in alt.home.repair How can
I upload an image? - DSC_9057_3.sized.jpg (1/1) "Craven Morehead" wrote: Bite me! The fact is, I can do ANYTHING I want to in newsgroups and there's NOTHING you can do about it. NOTHING! There are guidelines...there are rules...but there are NO laws. So just settle down and accept the fact that this is a community place. BTW, when it is desirable to use images, the accepted practice is to post them somewhere else (tinyurl.com seems to be a favorite spot), then post the link here. "Noozer" wrote in message news:2b3Ie.102611$%K2.17212@pd7tw1no... Idiot... Those are NOT welcome here! A: Nothing really. A Newsgroup, like life itself, is full of morons. Just ignore them. Don't respond to them. Even better, don't waste time reading their comments. They aren't likely to be able to contribute anything worth your time. Q: What can I do about this? A: Some newsgroups by their nature attract people who are not accustomed to following a logical progression of written comments. They either lack the intelligence to do so or are just too lazy. They read and reply to only the last comment without any concern for, or attempt at, understanding previous comments. Often their contribution is useless. Q: Then why are there some newsgroups with a lot of top posters? A: Because it destroys the logical flow of a thread of comments. Q: Why do so many people object to top posting? A: Writing your reply to a message above what you are referring to rather than below it. Q: What is "top posting"? Read this asshole. |
