TOPIC | Which photo upload site do you trust?
1 2
I'm trying to find a new site to support uploading photos after tinypic was shut down, I have heard of 5 that people tend to like, but I'm not sure which one to trust.

The 5 I hear of are:
Imgur
Photobucket
SmugMug
ImageShack
Postimage

I would prefer a free one and that I don't have to sign up for if possible, which it why I liked tinypic. If I have to create a log in though it's no big deal, I just don't want to pay for something I will only be using once every few months or less. And if I remember correctly, I think photobucket doesn't have a free option correct?

But I'm curious as to what everyone else prefers/thinks is the better option.
I really just want my sig back.

Imgur all the way. It's like reddit but more picture based! You do need to sign up but it keeps track of all your photos in a neat and easy fashion.

i think imageshack doesnt store images permamently which is Lame. so def not that
i use imgbb. i dont know if its that good but its the one ive been using for quite a while and ive just stuck with it, i think it works fine
imgur is prob the best option

Yeah, I've been looking at the others and found out the middle 3 i mentioned need log ins to work. and out of the other two imgur looks better. Also, I don't think I heard of imgbb before, PixelSpiral. I think im gonna try imgur but I will keep imgbb in mind.

I know there were just 2 of you so far, but both of your imput helps, thank you!

I've used Imgur for years and years. Absolutely the best imagehosting site!

Imgur 100%, Touhou.se is very good for all of my art though. So is DA, but lately DA has been being very weird with linking images in other sites. No clue why.

... ibb.co

It’s the only other one I know other than Imgur, and for some reason my tablet had this weird “haha screw u!!!” moment once every couple months where it refuses to show images posted on that website. during that time it kinda sucks to go into art sales because half of the pages at all just weird square png links..

Mainly, I use Imgur just because its a lot easier. However, I use Toyhou.se to store all of my personal art etc... and occasionally DeviantArt's sta.sh for commissions and such.

Though, I believe sta.sh has had some issues with displaying images through BBCode, but either that's been resolved or I've just been lucky and never had any issues.

All three you have to sign up for, but are all free. Toyhou.se you need to find an invite code, but I've seen plenty of people giving them out for free before, so all you have to do is ask really.
