***FREE HOSTS FOR IMAGES POSTING*** read and contribute pls

[TT]

Ok guys, enough is enough.. this days we keep seeing people posting with [img] w/o bothering to check if the pics works or not. I know, usually if you already opened the pic they will show for you beeing in the temporary internet files folder, but usually you can just open the pic01.jpg, copy url then thanks to the thumbnail you can figure out the other pics' names like pic02 and so on, and before opening them, you try to post their urls and see if they work... not to complicated right?

From now on, we won't tolerate red Xs anymore.. most BB IPs provide a small webspace for you to use, to buy a domain name and some webspace is incredibly cheap and hell, there are still free options around... so please, make the pics show, or simply DON'T POST!

__

So now, here is a list that we will try to keep up to date thanks also to YOUR contribution, with free hosting..

http://www.imageshack.us/ ---> (max 1024 kb and it automatically gives also a thumbnail code)... (thanks dani_d_mas for this one)

If you know more, please post them here.

[Jabba]

Just in case anyone missed my other post on this subject there is a zero tolerance policy in force on this one...if the pictures don't show then the post will be deleted.

There will of course be times when there are server hosting problems that are beyond your control but sticking to the more reliable hosting service's should keep this problem to a minimum.

[TT]

Thanks dani, updating the first post now

[muffinman2002]

http://www.photoisland.com provides free image hosting

[TT]

Since maybe you already use it, can you tell us if http://www.photoisland.com allows remote linking? It seems very similar to webshots and imagestation...

[PATo355]

I use www.midwar.net

it works very good for me

[TT]

Thanks Pato, I forgot about midwar.. only problem with it: it's very slow.. your 30 kb signature always takes 3 or 4 seconds to load (and I have a 1.2 MBit DSL).
But I'm adding it of course!

[muffinman2002]

Yes photoisland does allow remote linking, however the picture can only be remote linked for a few weeks at a time. If a picture has to be linked for longer than that then you have to go back and generate another link for remote linking.

[Chingachgook]

www.altervista.org

Free hosting for images and other files. 100mb of space and 10Giga of band. You only have to create a simple homepage and put some link in order to share your stuff with other people :wink:

[RC45]

FYI - Tuan had to shut freepixhosting.com down due to severe abuse... and form the sounds of things, it won';t be back anytime soon.

[stradale]

http://www.uploadit.org is the one I use nowadays for my sig. After freepixhosting shut down I needed something else and this was the one that popped up in my head. It's likely someone named it already, because usually I wouldn't know where to find services like this.

However, I don't know whether you could use this one to post large pictures.

EDIT: files can be no bigger than 200kb and it has a maximum of 20 pics. If you pay 5 GBP a year, you get a lot more.

[jorge]

Anyone knows if there´s a problem when you upload the magazine scans in these pages, because of legal matters?

I upladed some scans in angelfire some time ago and they disabled my account, i´m almost sure it was because it´s copyrighted material.

[TT]

Have you already checked our magazine scans section? Quite a few already and no problems so far.

[rob_e1]

http://www.showoffyourcar.com/ allows remote linking and is free to register.

[Fleischmann]

www.oshit.org <=== max 200 per file

[MIHALS]

Do you know some page, which can offer me min. 10MB freespace for free? and allows remote linking....

[TT]

Well websites like geocities and such that gives you webspace rarely allow remote linking.. but why the ones posted above allows you to upload way more than 10 MB if you want...

[SamuraiGti]

www.megagaleria.com

it's in portuguese, it's free but have to register. gives space to put about 5mb of images.

[tanelvali]

i have 200Mb and like 15GB/month traffic. Are there any free sites that can give me more webspace?

[TT]

If you want more, you will have to pay..

[chest3r]

I have a lot of photos at www.webshots.com . I think is very goog. But it doesn't allow remote link wich is a sh*t :twisted: :twisted:

[TT]

Yes, as akready mentioned in the first post :roll:

[LotusGT1]

You're easily irritated... :roll:

[TT]

Well, people not reading the whole topic are already irritating, but people not even reading the first post well.. don't try to say it's my fault :D

[toprpm]

Thanks TT ,, i did use picserver.org ..but since 3 days their server is down and i had to use the http://www.zippyimages.com ...there good and fast ....nice web thanks to TT

[TT]

No idea why, today I noticed a couple of topic with zippyimages hosted pics not showing...

[nurbrun]

yo guys i need a hosting site that can carry at least 10MB for a video i have.

any sight with that much space will be greatly appreicated :D

[Xploded]

FYI - Tuan had to shut freepixhosting.com down due to severe abuse... and form the sounds of things, it won';t be back anytime soon.

This service wont be comming back at all just due to the abuse it was getting .....

Best Regards - Xploded

[TT]

Thanks for letting us know dude ;)

[SamuraiGti]

Today i used freepixhosting asnd worked :?

[teto]

i use
http://www.imageshack.us/
and is the very easy to use...the only thing is that sometimes you need to modified your pictures cause there is a limit of 600KB....no problem at all the pics will look nice

[TT]

Thanks teto, but it is already listed ;)

[TT]

Added http://www.pifiu.com/upload/ another simple one as imageshack and allows files up to 2 MB

[Caps8419]

ok i understand the image posting process, but what is the space called underneath your post where many people have pics? is that the signurature space (under the profile menu) if it is do you just copy the URL in the space and it should show? there is probably another section and posts about this but i dont know what that space is called and therefore can't look for myself. thanks for the help. :)

[TT]

I see you already got it right, but just a suggestion, please can you make the picture a bit less tall? Let's say between 350 and 300 pixels maybe ;)

[roman]

i don't know if it was mentioned here but i like
http://www.xpphotoalbum.com/
you have to register but you get 100 megs for pics, and albums and some more options, you can remote link (when you see the pic just right click on it and copy the address)

[Mers]

Http://upl.silentwhisper.net

great site to upload pics....unknown, therefore fast

[nutsy]

thanks guys for all this good adresse i know where to put my files.
Or just create a site or an html page and put all your pictures in it.
Lost of sites gives you 100mg.

[evopanda]

(hotlinking allowed)

[TT]

only down side is all pics uploaded are converted to 640*480 res

LOL so this is not a "no file size limit" ;)... websites that automatically resize pics are sadly crap since the quality of the resize is never very good ...

[Vesius]

well, you can resize them your self with the highest quality ever (something like 12 megs hehe) and then upload it

[bmwmpower]

and video site - where can upload mine files,

[Vesius]

and video site - where can upload mine files,
you can upload here www.yousendit.com but you only can keep the file for 7 days or 25 downloads (The thing that happens sooner). You can also register for free here: http://superihost.com/ and you can upload up to 100 megs (via ftp also) con is that you have a 1gb per mounth bandwith limit.

[fultron]

Word to the wise, dont use geocities filemanager, as i did, it sucks

xpphotoalbum.com has closed. you may want to take that off the list of sites.

[TT]

[TNT]

edit: you can make your own but the image sizes are not that great unless you pay for a upgraded account. but its a yahoo owned site so i like it ;) and 25 bucks a year isn't bad to support the anti-google team. :P go Yahoo!
