Hey there! Whenever you're posting in the forums just click the little icon that looks like a photograph of the Mona Lisa. From there you just paste your image URL inbetween the code!

But first you need to save them to a site like Imgur and copy the pic Url

Don't forget to size the image by using   img width=450  or something of that size. I think if you don't size it that the mods have to go in and add that coding in.

I usually upload to DeviantART's Stash

I use Postimage if it's any help.

I use imgBB and copy the BB code link from there.

Ah, I never thought of DA - and I'm also struggling with what to use ever since PhotoBucket did its thing How does that work? I mean, will the pictures show up in your gallery like your art, or is there a way to distinguish? The pictures I'd need some storage site for are usually ones which I don't consider art at all (like... quick brag photos, or my avatar and signature pictures here. The latter is not even taken/made by me), I wouldn't want my DA account to show that as the art I created.

I mostly use Dropbox for stuff that isn't my own artwork.

Apologies, I'm resurrecting this topic, because I think this is an ongoing issue for many of us ever since Photobucket did their... thing The recommendations in the topic may come handy also to others

How long have you been using this site? I've just checked their policy, and they don't seem to have anything about picture removal after a certain time, which sounds good, but probably too good?

I've just recently registered to Imgur, but I'm not sure about their current storage policy (it used to be 6 months in case of inactive images, which appears to have been removed in 2015 - but that was also 5 years ago now, and I simply can't seem to find their most recent policy.

So for me, Imgur is what I have recently started to use for photos that I consider less 'artsy' e.g. stuff for sale. For photos I take to be visually enjoyed, I have been using Flickr for a long time now, and for this purpose I'm happy with it - but the did introduce an 1000 free picture storage limit in the past 1-2 years.

I'm not sure actually! I started using it when TinyPic became a paid website, I think that was about two years ago? I do agree that it does seem too good to be true... But so far I haven't had any problems with it.

It's such a hassle with image hosting now. I always used ImageShack, but suddenly you had to pay for it. Then I moved on to TinyPic; same story. Now it's PostImage, hopefully that'll stay the way it is!

Ahh this is a lifesaver! Thank you for sharing! I have been using Flickr for image hosting but it won’t give me the BB code link while I’m on my iPad, which is almost exclusively where I post from anymore. Now I can upload stuff more frequently since I don’t have to worry about getting to my actual desktop computer! I’m glad this thread is here for alternate hosting sites!
