    image hosting site?

    Hi, what would y'all recommend as a free image hosting site? I googled, and there's imgur, smugmug, etc.

    I've been using photobucket for my pic threads here, but yday, it was so so slow, and my "library" wouldn't load. I was trying to upload pix, but to no avail. No bikini pix, solly. Heh...

    Salamat in advance!

    Postimage.io ? free image hosting / image upload ? Postimage.io if you're too lazy to sign up for one and accept that you won't be able to fok up the forum in a drunken hissyfit by deleting them later on.

    imgur.com is what you want Katie. It is currently the best hosting site by far.

    Heh. Sadly, my body is not bikini-ready. I dazzle ppl with my wit & effervescent personality. I prolly won't even make the list of SP's or DJP's roots, not that I'd want to be in their list. Heh...

    Thnx to all the suggestions. Will try them later. But will see first if photobucket has fixed.itself.

    Am wondering if it's worth the time & effort to post the travel pix, when the Doors seem to be folding up soon..... time to cash in the gold nuggets? Heh...

    Don't believe everything you hear or see. Post up the pics. Sold or not TD not going anywhere in foreseeable future.

    Elementary my dear watson. If sold the new owner gains nothing closing it down. If not sold the current owner only need spend a few thousand baht to keep it going and gain a potential future sale.
    Of course, logic aside, could be a SWAG on my part.

    ^I don't post my travels on FB - don't feel the need to brag abt it to my circle of friends.

    "Look, I'm in Singapore! Look, I'm in New York! Look, I'm in Bkk" - ad nauseum. I only use FB for work, seldom log on, and I only get "tagged".

    Also, I don't want to link FB to TD. Too many nutters around. Heh...

    I have to agree with the fatfuck in post #4

    Imgur.com is the best.

    Then they dissappear a few months later.
    FB ruined all my earlier travel and cooking threads.

    FOL

    The only safe way is to upload the pics direct to the TD gallery, bit of a ball ache and not always possible.

    Adding pics to a long term thread from anywhere else risks losses.

    Look what happened to Mathos thread on Lancashire.

    especially including the salesdrones in HR

    any nickname used on a site where you may or may not post your opinions should be removed from anything slightly work related

    as stated before I never use my work laptop for anything personal - even though there are guidelines - from HR - as to what is allowed

    I don't know why people do not learn to use the coppermine gallery on the site - after you have it sussed it is not so hard - it also naeans that the hosting sites you are using are not analysing all your photos and attempting to tag anyone who accesses the pic and trying to use that info for monetary gain
    If you torture data for enough time , you can get it to say what you want.

    ^I use FB as little as possible. I only made an acct bcos my boss asked me to, so that I could be tagged in group photos. FB knows so much info abt ppl already, that it's somehow scary. And Zuckerberg's announcement of future FB features - it's creepy.

    I don't use the TD gallery since I found it a pain in the ass to learn/ use. Also, I prefer to use a hosting site so that if I flounce or the company folds up, I'll just delete my photos. Heh...

    Thnx for the suggestions. PB righted itself, so I still used it. Uploaded to another site as well, just in case.
