The picture is amusing :) Although i think most people on this board are starting to get a little tired of the AYB thing. Not myself, really. I still find it amusing.

The only way to solve the image hosting problem is to find a host other than Geocities, Yahoo, or Angelfire. I don't know exactly where to look, really, as I have my own web server.
