I actually- today was my last day in my creative writing class, and we were doing performance poetry, and one girl did a piece based around sock puppets. Yay synchronicity! If that's what this is.

how do you put pictures on LJ other than the user pic?

It's complicated, unfortunately. I haven't ever done it myself, except for those little quiz things where you just cut and paste the results and the quiz site hosts the picture for you.

LiveJournal refuses to host any pictures except userpics on their own servers. So you have to get the pictures hosted on another server, which is difficult since most free webspace providers like Geocities will block the pictures you host on their servers from being inserted into a page on a different server such as LiveJournal's. So really you probably have to pay for webspace on a server that won't block you from inserting pictures from it onto LiveJournal's pages.

If you do have a webspace provider that's cooperative, then all you have to do is insert the HTML coding for the image as shown here. The only change would be that where that page shows the image source as "typewriter.gif" you'd need to put in the full URL of the picture instead, like "http://www.yourhostname.com/typewriter.gif".

Probably an easier way to show pictures to the people reading your journal would just be to set up a website on Geocities and put your pictures there, and give the link to your website in your journal rather than inserting the pictures themselves directly into your journal. That way you can use free webspace and you don't have to deal with any of the weird problems about Geocities not letting their pictures be inserted into LiveJournal pages.

I hope this explanation made some kind of sense . . . let me know if you have more questions.

I think if Bush talked through a sock puppet people might actually start to take him seriously, reasoning that perhaps the puppet was the brains of the outfit.

Not Geocities. Geocities doesn't allow offsite posting of images and the like, because they're stoopid.

Good luck finding a server that will allow offsite posting and doesn't suck... I'm not leaking mine, although it's pretty easy to figure out... (i.e. look where my website is hosted ;))

subdimension.com allows offsite posting
