Store images on different web server than text

I am trying to do a quick and dirty web page just to report a trip to
interested friends. The report includes lots of pictures. My ISP provides
only 10MB of storage. While I have found others that will allow larger files
to be uploaded, they always have a lot of garbage preceding them; I want the
reader to be able to go direct to the web page.

I placed my images in photobucket.com. In using FrontPage to develop the
text, I am doing something wrong in inserting the images so that they do not
get uploaded to the "text" server (my ISP). This is the code I use; please
show me how to have the image show when someone loads it but not have all
those images loaded into the ISP. (Hope this is clear.) Or, a better
alternative at this point would be to point me to a web hosting site that is
free and will not have all the "garbage" but will go direct to my web page.
Here is the referenced code that gets the images uploaded to the text server.

How do I need to change it?

Thanks a zillion.

Leave the code exactly as it is.
The images will be loaded into the browser from photobucket.com, and the
rest of the page from your ISP space. The code does not load images into
the text server.

I do not know of a free server that does not add advertising.

I appreciate your response; however, this has not been the case. When I load
to my ISP from within Front Page, it also loads the photobucket images. I
cannot seem to resolve the issue as hard as I have tried.

If you can think of any other options, please don't hestitate to offer them.
In the meantime, I shall continue to work on it. Should I reach a solution,
I'll let all of you know.

Thanks, again.

What happens when you view the pages in a browser and not from within FP? It is normal for FP to
display where possible all content that is on a page.

I am happy to report that I resolved the problem myself. For some reason,
FrontPage wanted to acknowledge and upload images that were already on my
ISP. Once I removed them, I was able to load the text only. When I viewed
the web page, all pictures (on a different server) were in tact.

Some things you learn the hard way, 'eh?

Appreciate your responses. I now know to quit batting my head and come here
for answers!!

Many thanks.
