Best Picture Hosting Site

Forum URL: jjfilly.freeforums.net/

I want to add alot of different smiles an pictures and I want to keep them on a safe picture hosting site.  I heard a few of them are pretty bad and I don't want to lose my pictures off my site.  Any recommendations?  Thanks in advance.

One word: Cloudinary

They're targeting business clients for their paid services. That's where they make their money. But they also have free plans and the ability to handle other file uploads like spreadsheets, pdfs, and videos, not just images. There more of a learning curve to setting up an account but it's well worth the effort.

As far as your smiles, those are generally small files. You might want to host them locally on your forum?

Hello JJ ,

You can see a list of forum-friendly image hosting services in our Help Guide article External Resources.

Thank you all. I saved the external resources link and I will try cloudinary and see how it goes. Much appreciated.

I noticed the external resources link doesn't include imgur.com

They are what I currently use. It's easy to utilize, I don't think there is a size limit, and it's been around for a while, so it seems less likely to suddenly hold your images ransom for a fee (as some sites have done in the past).

Hope this helps!

shaxper, check the imgur terms of service. If I recall correctly, it may not allow 3rd party hosting. If not, that's why it's not on the external resources list.

shaxper, What moonbeam said is correct which is why imgur is not included in the External Resource list.

I've been using Fotki since the debacle with Photobucket and for a very reasonable price, I got plenty of space and it's also easy to use! And they have great customer service!
