Free photo hosts

#1 Postby OtherHD » Sat Dec 06, 2003 9:18 pm

I'm in need of a new photo host. The one I currently use is Imagestation, and it's good, except when I want to hotlink my photos to another site. When I hotlink, the size of the photo decreases, and I don't want that. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can use?

Try this one http://www.photobucket.com, you will have to register with them but at this time it is still free to use .

I was wondering about that too; as I also use Imagestation for my photo hosting and not only do their photo sizes decrease when you hotlink them; but the URL's are so dang huge that they don't fit in some of the profile boxes! :mad: That can really get in the way sometimes...

I just got an email from photobuckets admin, announcing some inprovements to the site.I have copied the highlights of the email for youand here they are.
Here are the highlights:

- Security option to prevent anonymous visitors
- Bulk move and delete tools
- Ability to add titles to your pictures
- Rename picture function
- Slideshow intervals
- <img src> tag for ebay and boards
- Custom account options and display preferences

Hope this will be what you were looking for in an image hosting site.
