Step 1: Upload the image from your computer to somewhere on the web
Option 1: Use the free space provided by your ISP.
Most ISPs provide free space for their subscribers. Check their support website for instructions on setting up and using your personal web site space. This is a great option because you normally have plenty of storage space and the images will always be available for viewing.
Option 2: Use image hosting websites such as photobucket.com, imageshack.us, or Yahoo Photos.
There are many image hosting sites on the web. Follow the uploading instructions provided for the particular image hosting website. Some services do not allow displaying images stored on their site on other pages, some charge an annual fee, and most limit the amount of images stored, so be sure you choose a service that fits your needs. Image hosting sites mentioned are examples of possible options, and not endorsed or recommended by Detailing Paradise. TIP: make more than 1 account..
