Okay, I like making banners and webdolls on the internet, but this site doesn't seem to accept my creations. Is there any specific way to get images from a paint program posted on the Internet?

ok, but it still has to be an internet image, so it can't come from your computer directly, it has to be hosted by someone

You can use Image Shack or Photobucket, you'll have set up an account at one of those and upload your images and it will give you the proper code.
