Again we see the usual response for Linux users... either way too simple or 
far too complex. Isn't there a happy medium? 8)

I'm going to assume that Joe probably knows what an <img> tag is since he 
has a webpage with images on it www.ka3nam.com, and probably isn't running 
his own webserver since he's using an offsite netstat monitoring program 
http://www.nedstatbasic.net/stats?ADT7vAsGkI4d3prrTV8og4S4mLxQ .

Joe probably wants to know how to get the snapshot off of his Linux machine 
and uploaded to the machine that serves his webpages.

He's probably wanting to know how to set up a cron job that would take the 
latest snapshot and upload it automatically at a regular interval.

I don't know the commands and syntax, but with about 6 hours of searching on 
the net, could probably figure it out.

It would probably be a cron setup to upload at the same interval as the 
snapshots are created (every 10 minutes???), and simply be a one line 
command like:

wput snapshot.png www.ka3nam.com/snapshot.png
or
ftp user:password snapshot.png www.ka3nam.com/snapshot.png

Something along those lines anyway...

Joe, is this what you are looking to do? If so, there are people more 
knowledgeable than little ol' me on this list!
