Help!

I've used almost my entire upload space in regards to pictures, etc. It's all photos from the various interviews, live concert reviews and so on that I've posted over the years.

So my question is....how do I get more space?! I've deleted all the non-essential ones, the ones that remain are essential for the interviews and live reviews to look correct.

Could I create a second account, perhaps under the name ABB2 or something, and just use it as a `storage' for any new photo uploads? If I did that, can I upload photos right away, or is that something you only gain after a certain amount of posts, etc?

Thanks for any advice and suggestions!

You can store them elsewhere, like Photobucket, and use the URL to put the images on your posts, at least that's what I do Ermm

Thanks for the advice, Sam!

I created a Photobucket account, but when I copy/paste the picture URL, all it comes up with is the dreaded `[X]'!

How do I get the photos to work properly?

You select the image you want and then click on (I think it's called) Direct Link on the right and it is copied. After that you only need to paste on your post
