    Upload to imageshack or something like that, and copy the link it gives you right into your post.

    For example:
    Just in case anyone asks, this isn't my comic.

    talk to me in a week or so about website hosting; I have a hosting business. Site was going to launch this weekend but was postponed due to a panic over a university assignment deadline. (False alarm, thankfully)

    If it's just web comics then I'll have something VERY interesting for you in a few months time.

    There's lots of free hosting sites out there. I myself use f2o (which has changed management but still has a free plan) for my now-defunct blog and AP Comp Sci homework. The free plan's at http://hostprogressive.com/webhosting/plans/f2o/index.php. It's really good, but applications are apparently closed right now. Oh, and you need to have knowledge of html or whatever you desire. But it's really good.

    Brinkster http://www.brinkster.com has free hosting too (scroll down and click free web hosting on the bottom left). Just a small link ad on the bottom, nothing too intrusive. (Last time I checked.) It's a bit more user-friendly.

    There's others, but those are filled with ads, and I can't remember the good ones at the moment. There's Freewebs, but the last time I used it (which was about... 5 years ago) it has a limit of 7 pages. And Bravehost... I had something against it, but I don't remember what. o_O And there are sites specifically for webcomics, but I can't remember those either.

    Not free, but very cheap :) One of my packages is specifically aimed at hard-up people such as students.
