Two things to make me antsy lately:

1. I recently waited several days to hear from the most promising group house I've encountered yet, only to hear that there was a communication failure and I should have been notified that it was taken. It was bad luck for me: I came at a pre-arranged time, but only one person was there, and she didn't have the final word on the lease. I sent an email to the designated contact asking for a time to meet the rest; he said he'd work something out, but he never did in time. The market is competitive, and never have I wished more to be outwardly interesting. I'm surely at a disadvantage for selling myself, being naturally inclined to keep to myself a lot (cyberspace excepted). Fortunately, my folks assure me that there's no external pressure for me to move out within the month.

2. I've scanned a drawing that I intend to submit to the Paperspace community, but I've never posted a scanned image in LiveJournal before. It has to be on a Web site. Making a site is one of the many life skills I'm late to learn, and I don't know how to find any premade sites that would accept an upload. I IMed a friend about it, and he promptly sent me a link to a site that could help, but I got distracted in another IM conversation and closed the window.

Before I try to buzz him again, could someone else please clue me in? I don't have FrontPage, and I'd rather not spend more money after that scanner, but I will if need be.

My submission ultimately might be a saving grace for Paperspace, which hasn't seen an update in over a month.

Go to phtotbucket.com, or any of the free image hosting services, even flickr!

Open a free account.

Upload your drawing as the largest size they allow.

Take the image tag they provide and paste it into your post.

Now that you say that, I believe it's the same site my friend linked to, only with a more complex URL. Thanks!

Yeah, Imageshack has been very good to me so far, and there's no signup required. You'd be amazed how big of an image they allow. (No set size as far as resolution but their file-size limit is big enough for probably a fullscreen thing at least.)
