Title: Photo hosting?
Post by: TickledPink on October 21, 2021, 06:26:19 PM: I used to host pictures of my customs on Photobucket, but since that doesn't really work anymore I need an alternative. What do you guys use? Free is best, but if it's inexpensive, I'll consider it

I know I can attach photos to my posts, but I've never really liked the way that looked.

Thanks! :D

While you're certainly allowed to, it is a poor photo hoster!

Flickr (http://www.flickr.com)

You can get Flickr as an app for you mobile. Just a FYI :) I don't know how the website works on a mobile but the app should work just fine.

I’m part of another board that does and I didn’t realize the Arena didn’t yet (and I completely understand if this is cost prohibitive or something, I just thought it had finally been folded into standard tech these years!)
