A question, and some Tom Lyle Batman images.
Probably going to have the obvious answer of "No", but I thought I'd ask; Can images posted here be hosted from our old LJ accounts? Since IJ doesn't seem to have a photo-hosting option beyond userpics.

And for legality, well and a whole heap of fun, I found these over at Tom Smith's comicartfan page here . Tom Lyle was the artist on launch of the 1980's Starman (A title I still like), the IMPACT! comics Comet run, and was instrumental in the launch of Tim Drakes Robin.

This is always a classic pose!

I have no idea why the Penguin is gassing Batman's crotch, but whatever floats Ossie's boat I suppose!

And here's a little something it would be worth buying a daypass to the funfair for! :)

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

	That first one is gorgeous. And man, do these ever make me miss the awesome, happy, red-green-and-yellow costume. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I could possibly have tolerated the sans-green costume if we'd had a slightly awesome, happy Tim, but we didn't get either. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Batman is gritting his teeth because his tiny ankles go "snap" every time he lands on his feet. (Reply to this) (Parent)

re: the photo hosting.

I don't see why not, assuming LJ themselves allow hosting on sites other than LJ (which they'd prevent via anti-hotlinking code probably, so I'd assume you'd know right away).

After all, scans have to be hosted somewhere, so why should IJ or the mods here care any more about whether the pics are hosted on your LJ scrapbook than if on imageshack.

Disclaimer: I am not a mod, or IJ.

	Batman: "Behold my menacing snarl! And my oddly bulbous nose! RAWR!" It amuses me that Penguin seems to have borrowed Joker's pants. And gak rollercoasters. hides in fear But who in their right minds would give Joker a building permit for a carnival? (Reply to this) (Thread)

As "The Killing Joke" showed, if the guy with the green hair and fixed grin wants to use a carnival, no one would probably stop him, or be in any condition to ten minutes later. Or maybe the Joker just told them he wanted to tie his pretty little hostage up, and they wanted to see it too! :)

	Hmm, I hadn't even thought about that. I've been posting pictures here and hosting at LJ since I got my IJ in has a quick look November 2007 (bloody hell, doesn't time fly). Nothing awful's happened yet. Batman's legs are kind of disturbing me. Joker's rocketpack, however, I want. (Reply to this)

	Holy crap! That Batmobile? The blue one in the background of the third scan? I have that toy. It's the one my brother and I had when we were little, and I still have it! (I think there was also some kind of ridiculous Joker-cycle, but that's long gone now.) (Reply to this)

	Oh, and from what I understand, it's only Marvel-related stuff that's an issue, but don't quote me on that, because I'm not 100% certain. (Reply to this)

From LJ's Scrapbook Help page:

You can use image URLs with HTML to add images to your comments, profile, custom mood theme, or external web page.

So it looks like LJ doesn't care, and since the Scrapbook is as much your own space as PB or Imageshack, I don't think it would thus fall afoul of the rules.
