Hi all

I want to run a web-server on my computer at home but i want to keep the
transfer from my computer as low as possible. I wonder, is it possible to
have the web-pages on my computer and use a account from a ISP and keep the
pictures there?
If i do so, will the pictures be sent from my ISP to the one who request the
site OR will the pictures be sent from my ISP to me and then will my
webserver send both pictures and pages to the one who reqiest the site?

Hope you understood what i was wondering about and have some kind of answer

Thanx to all who replies
