downloading jpg's stored offsite

I need to store jpegs offsite but access them from my website

Looking for a little pointer.

For space reasons, I need to store some images and possibly pages from my website (a) to another website (b).

What do I need to do to call a jpeg that I store on (b) when loading a page on website (a)?

Thanks,

Yup, use an absolute path in your img tag.

So on website A add image like:

<img src="http://www.websiteB.tld/yourimage.jpg">

The same goes for pages held on the other domain - although you might want to rethink that as indexing pagesfrom 2 domains on the same site could cause you problems with your SERPs later.

I got lots more space and bandwidth for an extra $1-$2 per month, I'm nowhere near using it all. - Larry

I was tripping up in specifying the absolute path and getting it mixed with website a's path.

Works perfect now.

Thanks!
