i donot know whether you can register now. but digitalrice allows it.

lycos.co.uk allows it.

thx, i have lycos UK...and i use geocities sometimes. i didnt know they allowed hotlinking.

and conker, thanks a lot for the imgserver link. imma use that one too

**conkermaniac** · 11-07-2002, 05:29 AM

Geocities = no hotlinking

They banned it 2 years ago, I think.

**praveen** · 11-07-2002, 07:39 AM

nope.

couple of my images are stored in geocities and i use them in another sites which are not in geocities.

According to Geocities comparison chart for their Free, Plus, and Pro accounts, only the pay accounts have remote loading for files. The Free account does not have remote loading, their terms for hotlinking.

DIGITALRICE is not offering free accounts at this time due to a lack of server resources. But you can make a very small donation and get 5 meg of space.

And I can never get the page with Image Server. Are they having problems, or is it just on my end?

has anybody tried those?
i need to hotlink my banner and add it to a rankem page. my hosting company dont allow hotlinking pics.
is there another way of doing this?
i heard of a .htaccess file that can allow this.

add your comments and the first to figure this out gets a lapdance fro me

If you're talking about the ones that Praveen listed, I've tried several of them.

There are some places that you can store pics or banners and hotlink to them, but it seems there are not a lot. They are places like SigHost. Even at that, I think they might have a bandwidth requirement too.

Yeah free hosting is expensive

. A lot of the sites are going by the wayside...

www.applepics.com hopefully meets the requirements listed here, no bandwidth limit, no banners, no ads, no watermarks, just good free image hosting.

you can always use www.photobucket.com to upload images to so that you can hotlink them
