I think your image needs to be uploaded to an image hosting site. For me it is Photobucket but there are others. Most times there also an image size limit like the site I manage where it is 600 x 600 dpi per image. The we use a limit for those who has smart phones are able to view the images easier.
To each his own when it comes to painting but as you there some that like to keep things as original as possible. To me a good paint job is better than something half done.
