Pictures

[Jim Smyth]

Trying with no luck. The picture I would like to post is at:

When we put in the brackets we get this:

We keep getting the Xoom logo rather than the picture. Any help would be appreciated!

Those @#$%! My uneducated quess is that XOOM doesn't want you to use the links that way.

For beginners here some more regarding pictures

This is the answer we got back from Xoom:

It is not possible to link from an image stored on your XOOM.com
site from a remote server. Unfortunately, there were warez and
porno sites using massive bandwidth to do that. Perhaps you can
store that particular image on some space at your internet service
provider? That's what I've done with mine in similar
circumstances. (eBay is an exception to this rule, in case you
are wondering, because it is an affiliate of XOOM.com)

Anybody have any sugestions to where I can get a small site ( for free) just to post pics that I can share.

Thanks in advance!

Try www.geocities.com you'll get 10mb for free. www.angelfire.com is offering it too I heard.
