Does anyone know of any free web servers that allow remote direct image linking? For instance, if you attempt to display an Geocities-hosted image on a site using "IMG SRC=" or even using the UBB code here on e-budo you get the little red X. Any one still allow the image to be displayed?

The trick to yahoo (Geocities-hosted) is to rename the jpg to txt in the Geocities file manager.

Like

ana.jpg -> ana.txt

will show up as a photo when imbedded between img tags.

Cool...do you know offhand if this trick works with HTML as well as UBB code?

Sorry I do not know but I think that it would for links to the “txt“ image worked when sent to others through instant messaging programs. I used to post on a needlework forum using that trick but it was vBulletin so UBB was active - that is why I am uncertain. Experiment good sir...
