I hotlinked mine (it is under the limit) from my
Netscape site as is my usual habit. I use them for a graphic/file hoster all the time, they've never failed me. (and yes my sig pic is also hotlinked from there)
I would've liked to use this one though(the problem is it's almost 10KB):
I'm the type that doesn't change avvies that much, though.
Anyway, you could get space there. Ya don't need a AIM name to do it, but if you do have AIM, use your AIM username and password to get space.
And may I see the original shot? Maybe I could go get the GIMP out and get it to the right size for ya...(hey, I've been able to get the ones I make _pretty small_ though I've done avvies for the
RPGamer board (64X64, no bigger than 10KB) or the
DSL Net board (100X100, no file size limit)
