I just created a pretty nice PDF summarizing Las Vegas nightlife/pool parties and general guidelines when dealing with both and would like to post it in a thread. Would somehow directly posting the PDF be my best option or is there some better way to share this? Thanks.

Yea, I figured text would have needed some cosmetic editing while hosting would make you click to view instead of being right there like a picture. I realize I'm being particular and difficult.

You're not being difficult, you're just looking for a choice that doesn't exist. Post or host, that's the most you can do to make others engrossed in your post.

Why the hell would you make a PDF to post on a website.

PDF's have a utility- but this sure as **** isn't it.

Well I made a spreadsheet first in Excel. Because I'm at work. Then PDF'd it to email out to people. Figured posting the image would be nice but I'll just host it. Thanks Bobo.

Not to boast... just had some leftover beef roast on whole wheat toast. That's what I like the most, best on the East Coast.

Smody,

When I make a spreadsheet that I want to share on places like this, I generally make it a Google doc - import or native - and then I take a picture of that doc.

I host the picture, and create a link on the picture that goes to the actual Google doc.

Like this one, for example, the people who got ripped off by "PMI"
