Hosting a File in a URL

[Termer]

Sometimes it's a pain hosting files. Then I discovered this!
To host a file in a URL, you have to start the URL like this:

data:binary/bin;base64,

Use a website like this to convert your file to base64
Copy the text in you get (it will probably look like nonsense)
Paste it after

data:binary/bin;base64,

,
And you've got your file URL!
If it's a special type of file, you can change "bin" to the file extension.
Example:

Spoiler: My Logo

My Logo. Rename to logo.png once downloaded.

data:binary/png;base64,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

You could've set the MIME type of your icon to image/png instead of binary/png, this way all browsers render them just fine.

I know. I set it to binary so that it would download, not just show it in the browser
