<p>[QUOTE="SuperDave, post: 2797010, member: 1892"]I'm not sure I understand why there's a worry about posting images here (or almost any forum) when the site itself will host them for you. Whether they're hosted here or remotely, the act of posting them (by accepted practice across the Internet) gives the site a non-exclusive license to use them as they wish. If you're going to let CT reproduce them if they want, the least they can do is host them for you. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Is there anyone here who actually hosts their images <b>only</b> online, and not locally on their own computer also?
