:the cosmic rules:
1. NO hotlinking.
hotlinking is evil, y`know.. :(

what is hotlinking?
:: A hyperlink to a media file (video, audio, Flash, image, etc.) on another site that bypasses any html pages that would identify the site or earn it advertising revenue. Prohibited on many message boards and blogs, as it saps bandwidth from the site serving the media and earns the ire of the site's owners.
Hotlinking is not only bad netiquette, it's theft.
taken from urban dictionary.
don't make "I don't know how to upload a picture" or "I don't have a server" as an excuse. there are some free & easy-to-use servers you can use, like photobucket.com (requires you to sign up, but once you upload your image, it will stay forever. err except when your account exceeded =x), imageshack.us (no need to sign up, but your image will expire in certain time), tinypic.com and etc.

how to upload picture on our own server?
:: oh, it's simple and easy. trust me ;D

first of all, just save the icons to your computer.

if you decide to use photobucket:
1. go to http://www.photobucket.com
2. do sign up
3. log in to your account.
4. find a 'browse' tab.
5. select the picture you want to upload from your folder, then click OK
6. find the 'UPLOAD' tab and hit it.
7. there you go. =D you have your own link for your picture.

if you decide to use imageshack:
1. go to http://imageshack.us
2. find a 'browse' tab
--->if you want to upload more than one pic, choose 'MULTIPLOADER' instead 'IMAGE'
3. select the pictures you want to upload from your folder, then click OK
4. hit 'HOST IT!'
5. voila, you have your own link. =D

if you decide to use tinypic:
1. go to http://tinypic.com
2. find a 'browse' tab.
3. select the picture you want to upload from your folder, then click OK
4. choose the file type, image or video?
5. resize = default
6. hit 'UPLOAD NOW'
7. congratulations! you have your own link :)
