change the nameservers to point to your host.

In GoDaddy, there should be an option to setup domain forwarding. I'm not sure if that's an add-on or not, but that allows you to just create a forward through GoDaddy itself to anything you want.

GoDaddy does allow you to forward your domain wherever you want. You must make sure the DNS is pointing to their parked nameservers I believe.

Yang,
As jordanriane and Lucas pointed out above, Domain Fowarding is an option on GoDaddy. The DNS functionality, should have an option to "Foward DNS back to us" or something similar. Once pointed back directly to GoDaddy, you can establish a Domain Fowarder.

You can create a blank HTML page with an image on it. You will need to contact your web hosting provider and find out their nameservers. Once you do that, go into the GoDaddy control panel and edit the namerserver settings to point to your hosting account.
