IMAGE host for use elsewhere? Idisk??

Hi,
Hope this is the right place for this question. I need to upload pictures that I'll using elsewhere, ie:ebay. I need a regular web address that can specifically go to the image I've uploaded, so it must end with the
/imagename.jpg. Is there a way to do this. I'm not certain if idisk is even available for this, but I thought it should be. I can't even get to my idisk page via the standard method. I get a page not found message. I've followed the idisk information fairly carefully, so if anyone knows how to upload images in a retreivable way, please share. It would certainly make my life easier... If idisk isn't meant for this use, please advise also.

Thanks very much.... Artist
 
you can do it with iDisk, but you have to correct the permissions of the published file. By default it cannot be read by others.

Any guidance on how to do this? I'm trying to find out, but not getting too far in the help on idisk. Appreciate anything...

Hi,
Thanks for the idea, but it didn't work for me. I can get to the homepage with just the simple homepage idea, but it comes up as a photo album.html, or somesuch... If I exchange the photo album for the actual image I'm trying to get, it doesn't work. Says no such page exists. Maybe I need to do this without the photo album deal... I'll try that and if you have any other suggestions, I'm open... Thanks as this idea sounded feasible, and maybe it still is... if so, I'll let you know... Artist

In iDisk, if you upload to your sites folder, then just give someone the ink;
