Now that photobucket is no longer allowing pictures to be shared--without paying a fee. Does a member perhaps have a recommendation for replacement of Photobucket?
Thank you |

Quite easy to use, you just need to create and name an album to upload to, Name you file, and select 17 '' 1024 x 768 for picture size, then select you image and upload
Tiny pics runs far faster than Photobucket without the annoying pop ups

I am no expert on using tinypics but
1. They are a Photobucket company
2. The Wikipedia page is not promising:
"Criticism
One of the main criticisms people have with TinyPic is that uploaded images usually get deleted within a few days or weeks [5] resulting in any post or website that has used TinyPic to display a picture not found error message." |

Read their own FAQ, do you want to take the chance of having links broken again?

Personally I use Amazon S3, but that is a very technical way to do it, not easy. It is incredibly cheap though. |

I've found https://imgbb.com to be good so far. Can't speak to their longevity yet I guess. |

But not for long. Got an email from them saying that they’re moving to a subscription model so pay up or lose your photos. Oh well, bye bye Tinypics. |

I use Google Photo. If you aren't opposed to contributing to big data, it is free storage with basic editing tools, the app will allow your phone to automatically backup/upload pics while on wifi, which means my pics are ready to link/use without me having to routinely upload them. 3rd party hosting/embedding is an issue - I've been using dropbox for that and it works well.
Example - my VFR refurb thread - https://www.vfrdiscussion.com/index.php?/forums/topic/87690-adkfinns-5th-gen-20yr-refresh/ |

I've been using photobucket with a paid account all along, basically since I joined this forum. Never lost pics or anything, but of course was worried there for quite q while. I pay $2.49 a month now, it used to be $25/yr. Not too big of an increase really. They did really mess up the interface when they went through the ownership issues and changed everything, but it's still kind of useful and all my links still work. |
