mhbell Posted August 7, 2019 Author Posted August 7, 2019 Imgur or http://postimage.org/ Thank You postimage works great for me. Quote
mhbell Posted August 7, 2019 Author Posted August 7, 2019 THanks Everyone. I have bookmarked all 3 and have tried them all. I like postimage the best. Mel Quote
securitybreach Posted August 7, 2019 Posted August 7, 2019 Those are neat sites but remember how many hosting companies have come and go. I could only really trust a website that has been around a long time and is trusted (most of reddit posts are hosted on imgur). Imgur has been around since 2013. scrot.moe is very cool as it's geared towards linux posts. 1 Quote
raymac46 Posted August 7, 2019 Posted August 7, 2019 (edited) Personally I have given up on photo hosting sites as they can change their terms and conditions. Photobucket did this and I was paying for my space there. I have my own hosting provider for my blog and for the money I get unlimited hosting and sharing of photos wherever and whenever I want. No watermarks, no holding my photos hostage, no dead links. I think it is worth it. Edited August 7, 2019 by raymac46 2 Quote

zlim Posted August 7, 2019 Posted August 7, 2019 I use ImageBam, which is free. http://www.imagebam.com/ It said it was going down so I moved everything to my computer and back up on a USB stick. Then it came back. I don't put anything critical there. I did use a pay site for many years with no problem. Then one year they took my money and I had no access. Thankfully I paid with PayPal and filed a complaint. I did get my money back and decided at that point, no more pay sites for me! Quote
raymac46 Posted August 7, 2019 Posted August 7, 2019 Imgur may be OK but after having to redo all my blog posts I am much happier to have the photos on my own site. Quote
