you HAVE to change the extension of the geocities picture to

<B>your file name.txt</B>

other wise it wont work, i repeated this many times
nothing is wrong with your computer.

yes but if i do that then it won't work because my computer will think it's a text file. anyway i tried on several different free hostiong sites bravenet, gizba and brinkster, and it didn't work on any of them. and on top of all that i've yused geocities for this before.
