Free web host?

I need a free webhost. Tried geocities, but the interface is pretty terrible. I have next to no web building knowledge. Only interested in posting a few pics, nothing more. Suggestions?

DotEasy maybe. Although I really can't recommend any free ones that will give you all that you need.

See if your ISP offers free space with your account, that's the easy way.

GoDaddy offers .com domain registration for $7.95 a year, and will host it for $3.95 a month - that's a decent deal, you get like 25mb of space and no ads or proprietary software required, use your web editor of choice and upload by FTP. It even comes with an email account.

I also believe that Yahoo and some others offer free online picture albums.

If you want to post pictures you can use www.webshots.com to post high quality pics. Another is MSN Groups where you can post hundreds of pictures but at lower quality. When I want to post pictures I use my group seen HERE. As you can see it's all miscellaneous stuff. At My WEBSHOTS PAGE I have more senic pictures and not so many usless ones.

There are a bunch of sites. Go to google.com and type keywords in the search bar (e.g. free webhosting or web hosting for free)

You can always host off your own machine, if you have a broadband connection. It's what I do, and people say my site is quicker than most webhosts.
