I use Photobucket, and it has never failed me. It can operate a little slowly at times, but it has a very handy, capable, and all-in-all easy to use interface for sorting, editing, and posting your images. It's free up until a certain point in use of bandwidth, but you'd have to go completely nuts to do that, I suppose. I've had and been using my account for years, and haven't even gotten close to hitting the limit.

Well, I have re-tried Photobucket (haven't used it for years) and it seems to have advanced a lot. Certainly the interface is now much better than ImageShack, but I don't trust it much...

For most images I uses Imgur. Imgur compresses images over 1MB, so for those I use Min.us. Both allow unlimited anonymous uploading, but I use Imgur because I trust it more.

If you do decide to use them, I'd keep backups of any important images. Imgur seems pretty solid at the moment, but you never know about the future.

tinypic.com is what I always use. It may or may not be by the same folks who run tinyurl. It's never failed me. In fact, I've gone back to find posts I made years ago and the images still work.

I stick with Photobucket because copying and pasting has been made so much more effortless as of late and its Firefox add-on makes uploading images from my computer a snap.

I use Dropbox- I can host any file there, and it'll automatically make thumbnail pages.

Specifically, I use it for the DBAF pages: http://www.dropbox.com/gallery/681507/1 ... s?h=ad44b5

(Full disclosure, using that first link will act as a referral if you sign up - it'll give us both a little extra space.)


PS, on the mention of Imgur: Imgur will strip all metadata from your image. If you're not using Imgur and want to remove personal information, a program like "JPEG & PNG stripper" will do the same.

Just thought I'd chime in and mention that I've used photobucket for years without any trouble. I've never gone and used up all my bandwidth, even using it to embed images in posts. I think you'd have to go incredibly overboard to use up your data allowance.

I used up all of my bandwidth a while ago from multiple. gif files being posted across different sites.

I use my own server, but tinypic>imageshack any day.

I've always used http://www.majhost.com/ but I don't know what the image limit is there. I DO know that they don't mess with the image quality though. If you want upload an HD bitmap image, so be it.
