When you sign up for MyHosting services does it include things like image hosting also?
If not then who does everyone here use for hosting graphics and images. Ive been using Flickr recently and am pretty happy with their service but eventually I think that I should find something thats not publicly hosted so that it will seem more professional if people check where my images come from.
I'm not completely positive but I believe you should be able to host your images through your hosting with whatever company you choose. I know there's a thread in another forum here about using FTP programs to upload files so I assume that would apply to images as well, but I could be wrong.

i think that the above poster is right, usually a hosting site will let you upload your images straight to them. if not using a simple site like flickr should be fine just be sure to use the direct links instead of the ones that include clickable links that take you back to the hosting site.

thanks for the comments
You can upload pictures on to ur hosted site - but I guess the real question is what do you want to do with these pictures? Create a photo album?
If so, there is a gallery app offered.

that's pretty awesome melissas, does it cost extra or is it one of those inclusive type things? i personally don't see myself needing a gallery though, i really just like to add a nice little image to most of my announcements and updates.
Thanks Melissas. I'm not incredibly tech savvy so I didn't want to say anything for sure, but that was what I thought. Glad you could confirm.

If you don't have hosting and just need free file storage I would suggest flickr or photobucket... PB will let you host backgrounds, but other than that they're both pretty decent...
