Images

At this time, we don't have the ability for you to attach a picture to this form. We encourage you to upload your pic to a webspace and provide us with a link to it. A picture helps tremendously when trying to attribute a coin, and increase the chances that you will recieve a correct attribution. Some of the hosting options provide a LOOOONG url. If this is the case, please use TINY URL to produce a more manageable link.
