You can save your Excel file and upload as a table in a Word doc. More than one way to skin a cat!

A PDF document is much more usable than a picture (for instance, you can copy text from it), and more universally accessible than a Microsoft Office Word document.

For Google users, another option is to import the Excel sheet into a Google Spreadsheet document, store it in Google Drive, and share it: you would then post a link, rather than the actual document.
