    I would like to find a photo hosting site that the is not blocked on the company network. I can not get to any socal networking or photo hosting sites. Does anyone have any ideas. I am thinking there must be a pay site out there that is not blocked.

    A down and dirty way would be to email the pictures to a friend and have a flickr account setup for you, by them, and they can post for you.

    Maybe a free webpage place or blogspot or something where you can up load anything...

    Can you access a free blog or website platform to use? Like blogspot?

    Alternatively, since you can obviously access GRM, is to create a Reader's Ride called "Afghanistan" and load your pics there. Then you can hotlink to the updates!

    Winner! Every other image hosting service is blocked on my corporate network. Even my godaddy blog is blocked. I can hotlink from my readers ride all day long

    That's crazy, you think about running a proxy? 9 times out of 10 that's the easiest way to access most blocked websites.

    Ya, getting caught would mean loosing a great paying job. Granted the working conditions suck, but I am not ready to be sent home yet. I did not think of just putting the pics in Reader’s Rides. I needed to start a Reader’s Rides any way. Thanks guys!
