Althought it's a bit more work than just uploading an image, you can still host images on servers that have disabled remote linking.

Example:

******** height=463 width=380 frameborder="0" bordercolor="#000000" src="http://www.geocities.com/dark_god7/example.html">***********

What you need to do is open up notepad and paste the following into the text box:

(HTML)(BODY BGCOLOR="#000000")(img src="http://www.geocities.com/your_page/image.jpg")(/BODY)(/HTML).

Just replace the () brackets with <> ones. Now click "File >> Save As". In the field that says "Save as Type: Text Documents", right under where you put in the name of the document, change it to read "All Files (*.*)" Now, save the document as "sig.html"

Now, upload the page to Geocities (or wherever) and, in your signature, use the following code.

(IFRAME height=xxx width=xxx frameborder="0" bordercolor="#000000" src="http://www.geocities.com/your_page/sig.html")(/IFRAME)

Again, replace the () with <>

It sounds like a lot more work that it really is, and only takes a few seconds to do.

Basically, host an HTML page/ASP page there with the image on it, IFRAME it, and wahla, you have the image hosted wherever you want.
