I've cross-quoted below for context from the sticky topic "How to Post Screen Shots" because I didn't want to post directly to a sticky uninvited...
For anybody that wants to post a screenshot but doesn't have easy access to webspace for hosting their pictures, I've found the following site to be really very useful - it's free, very simple to use, allows hot-linking and will host an unlimited number of images for you, the only constraint being they all have to be less than 1025k each, or something along those lines:

Posting screenshots isn't all that easy or obvious, so here's some help on how to do it. If you have any trouble with this and you have a screenshot you really want to post, email it to screenshots@visualflight.co.uk and we'll see what we can do.
If you fancy having a go yourself, here's how to do it:
- Publish the screenshot somewhere on the internet, e.g. in the free webspace provided by your ISP. Check your ISP's help pages for details of how to do this.
- Make a note of the URL of the image. You can do this in Internet Explorer by right-clicking the published image, then selecting Properties from the pop-up mouse menu. It should look something like http://www.myisp.com/mypages/image1.jpg
- In the Screenshots forum, click New Topic.
- Add the following to your message: [imgx]http://www.myisp.com/mypages/image1.jpg[/imgx], but without the 'x's. I only used imgx to prevent the example being shown as an image. Also, you'll obviously need to use your own URL, not the one given in the example.
- Add your description before or after the screenshot code.
- Use Preview to check it's all OK, then Post New Topic.
If you need additional help, try looking through the FAQ in the forum help menu at the top of the page.

I've made this post 'sticky' as no doubt many people will find it useful. I have to point out that this is in no way a recommendation to use this image hosting service, and there are others which have been mentioned previously such as photobucket.com which people may wish to explore.
