How?

I was just wondering how do you get your fanart on the computer cause I'd like to post some of mine?

Well, last year I would just have recommended you to read the general guidebook to PEEL, the PEELers' FAQ.

However, now there are better solutions for you to get your pictures into the Internet, and aslate removed his PEEL file hoster.

Ok... let's see:
You can't simply link to PEEL from your computer, there are few facts why. The first one would be that if you directly link to it like "c:\my documents\pictures\pic.jpg" PEEL and everyones webbrowser, wouldn't know which c:\ is meant.

The other point is that even if that would work it still won't once you turn your PC off.

Therefore you need some service that will hold the images for you, and give you an unique referece to it.
A service I recommend for pictures is Imageshack.us for that.
Go there, click on the "search my PC" button, find your picture and hit submit.
It'll upload it and give you links. Prefer the "Thumbnail 1" type of link, copy and paste the text they give you and post it then here.

I myself use photobucket, but they are basically the same..they both host images

yea.... Zoidy is smart...listen to her of GFF also.... hehe I didn't give her a choice... she has to listen to me or not host the images at all ... hehe

Hey, I don't see you with images, even if you just put them on your server from the "Upload URL" option  Now when you say smart....... I'm sure GFF knows more of what the heck he's doing than I do.  I've only been online about a year with photobucket, and I'm just now learning.. I think I've had internet since 6th grade or so...not that long

Photo Bucket is a good one.

What about image shack?

[Reply #7 on:]

They're both probably about equal, though I've never used it myself.

Imageshack is better, but unfortunately the thumbnail links now throw out annoying popups that even Firefox won't block  .

[Reply #9 on:]

  That's not funny!!! If you want no popups, photo's better, if you want better stuff, image shack
