Who to use for image hosting?
« on: November 20, 2017, 01:26:32 PM »
I have a question for who to use as my image host.
I use photo bucket per suggestion here. But, now my images are missing in my posts.
And they are replaced here with a message to sign up for a service.
Can someone suggest a solution for this?
Thanks.  :-o

Photobucket rather unexpectedly decided to declare war on people using their site to host pictures. They only offer one ridiculous plan, which is $399 per year.  :-o. I put together this guide to use Imgur, which is actually a lot easier to use. Give it a try and let me know if you have any issues.

Perhaps I have a dirt bike addiction?

Imgur is awesome, easy to use, has a great app and the company as of right now isnt commiting business suicide like Photobucket.
