I have a free host from fortunecity.com . I uploaded an animation file (.gif) to there, then I post that file on my signature link to that file. After a while , everything was gone ?? I did the same way to other free host, and the image did not display ????

Alot of free hosts block linking to images from outside thier servers. Some of them also have a bandwidth limit that at that point you can't view your site or anything load on thier server pretaining to your site. If its just a simple gif file I'll host it for you on one of my domains that I am not doing anything with at the moment. Just no using 100 GB bandwidth with that one image.

They probably have hotlinking turned off. So you'll only be able to view your image from your site, not from a forum. (Hotlinking is calling a file, usually an image, on one site from another site.)

Thanks
But I can't access to that account any more ?? . Did I violate the rule ?? or someone hacked it ??

I would venture to say you went over your limit so they suspended your accout for the month or you may have violated some rule.

I would see if your ISP gives you any hosting options. Many of them give you 5 or 10 Megs to do what you want with.

Thanks all
