Well... you haven't checked and most people here might get annoyed or a waiting in anticipation for people to get annoyed. That is not the right way of getting answers, you know?

I will give you two options for posting patches. You will hopefully notice which one is the normal way.

1. Open your patch in a hex editor and copy the hex code into your posting.
2. Use a service for hosting files - but be careful with freewebs and similiar - and post a link to the patch.

Hope I helped you

The above post sums up everything pretty well, but as for places you can upload your patch to, here's three that I can think of off the top of my head:

:: zShare
:: YouSendIt
:: myFileHut

I don't think any of those sites will allow uploads of .ips files, so make sure you zip your patch up first, using Winzip, or whatever other file compression program you use After you've uploaded the patch, cut and paste the URL you're given into your post. Also, myFileHut requires registration, which is free.

As for copying and pasting the contents of your patch in a hex editor to your post, you could do that, but I wouldn't advise it, as Ragnara hinted at

It shouldn't be too difficult to get your patch uploaded somewhere though
