I happen to be in a situation where I am running PPF on my web server, but this could be applicable in situations where the PPF host and the web site are on the same network and the comics can be made available through direct file path instead of upload via FTP.
To this end, I changed the config file to move the viewingURL outside the upload tag and modified the code accordingly. Looking at it today, I realise that it probably needs further changes to give the admin a choice whether or not to display the URL.

On further review it may be that the upload tag might be better extended to include a file destination in addition to ftp. Though, this does bring in some further complexity to the plugin.
One thing I did notice is that ComicBot created directories on a per-channel basis but appears to only offer a single destinate for upload. Do we need to look at channel handling for the uploads as well?
