Damn photobucket.

I need to find a new free photo hosting website.

What do you use?

Bastards. They want $400 for hosting my pics so I can put them out on forums.

Yeah right.......

Instagram is impossible to just get the picture code - facebook is better

They all do that, I had Image Shack and Fotki, they both had a limit of photos until they make you pay for it and stop you from uploading further pics, although in some cases you may be able to delete old ones and put new ones in, not sure. You can certainly delete old ones.

Or maybe just sign up for new accounts.

edit: By the way if it's not clear, the ones I mentioned won't delete your old photos, they just have a limit of 50 photos per free account or something like that.

Maybe not the best idea.

From Imgur TOS:
Also, don't use Imgur to host image libraries you link to from elsewhere, content for your website, advertising, avatars, or anything else that turns us into your content delivery network. If you do – and we will be the judge – or if you do anything illegal, in addition to any other legal rights we may have, we will ban you along with the site you're hotlinking from, delete all your images, report you to the authorities if necessary, and prevent you from viewing any images hosted on Imgur.com. We mean it.

I was able to drop a link in another forum tonight... but I hate PB too... slower than crap. I had to try and load my library like 4 times... it would load the page and the page would be 95% blank. TBH, I don't use it that often... but doesn't matter. It's a POS site/service, imho.

I'm leaving my sig pic just like it is. I figure it's still eating up their bandwidth to load that message. Let it sit for a while.

Nice! I recently switched to Imgur, seems to be good so far.

I'll have to try and figure out something else soon.
Tried Instagram but couldn't link the pic, tried Facebook but same result as Instagram.....
