Dose anyone know of a fast free host that will let me link images from other sites... I just need to host my sig and my avatar image. Thanks!

A) None of them are really fast.

Drop the sig idea. Images in signatures usually suck ass.

C) Geocities still works. Just rename the file extension to .txt and use that.

Does this trick only work with IE? Cuz I've used both NS7 and Opera and it only displayed the characters. IE worked, though.

mozilla sometimes doesnt follow the correct procedure for unknown file types (eg rars/zips) where if you click a link to them it will try and load an ascii filtered display of the file

i guess its related to that, after all it is told by the extension that its a text file not a graphic, so its ie really that is to blame (doing something it shouldnt do) rather than other browsers that are at fault

you would be best to see if your isp offers you any webspace (almost all ive seen offer some) and just put it on there

Bah, if I tell a browser an image is at X address, it sure as hell better look for it at X address, no matter the extension!
