SVG filehosts?

[Shrike]

I was hoping to add an SVG graphic to one of my boards but I can't find any file hosting sites that support SVG and let you hotlink it (in the sense that my avatar is hotlinked from my Photobucket account).

I know that I could simply put the actual code of the SVG but I'm only about 15% of the way through drawing it and it's already at 16KB (I'm anticipating that it'l be around 100KB when done) so that's an awful lot to put in directly.

I've tried searching on Google and looking at the image hosts in the "useful links" thread but to no avail. Does anyone know of a suitable file host that, if not specifically for SVGs, would support XML-based files that I can embed?

Many browsers still don't support SVG. Just load it, screenshot it, then upload the screenshot to use as an avatar.

MyImages, when released will support SVG and many other file formats

As far as I know, only IE 8 doesn't support it. Opera, Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Seamonkey (or the latest versions at least) definitely do support it.

And I'm not wanting to use it as an avatar, it is actually a map that I want people to be able to zoom in on and click on different areas etc so a plain PNG, for example wouldn't work. I've currently got it set up with an image map and a PNG base image but the PNG can only show so much detail without getting a ridiculous filesize.

And allow permanent links for embedding it? If so, I'll be waiting =D

Yep, as long as the file is accessed at least once every 90 days, the file will stay up there with direct link capability.

Hmm, that sounds good to me. Thanks for your help
