SinisterVampire319 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Had Photobucket and Flickr. Flickr was the best for the amount of images you were allowed to save. Then when Yahoo went toe up they sold it and now they limit you to 1K images. Now I am using Imgur with no issues. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
habu2 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I use imgur Quote Link to post Share on other sites
11bee Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Good info. I love Flickr but have maxed out my account, so I've been trying to figure out who to use. I guess I'll give imgur a shot. Thanks guys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dogsbody Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I do have a paid Flickr account now, but I have just over 2500 images there now. One free option is: https://village.photos/ Chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Imgur all the way. So fantastically user-friendly compared to PB, I wished I'd have switched years before I did. It was like discovering electricity after the stone age. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

N6227 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Hi, Thanks this was helpful. Is there a recommended file size for the posted photos? I tried a few searches but didn’t see any suggestions - was thinking 640 x 480 would be ok but wanted to check before posting shots for the group build. Thanks!

caudleryan Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I have used imgr before and I liked it. They have preset image sizes you can use when you upload your photos. They have one for forums like this one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HOLMES Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 IMGUR or IMAGESHACK. But prefer IMGUR. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dan I'm not sure about this forum, but years ago, most forums would take anything in the 600x800 size. This size is good to see most details on kits. Below is a 600x800 sized photo: Oh! Right!

One of the reasons I don't come here very often! Hey, Chris, I use Flickr and it's still good. I normally do as follows: 1. From your flickr photo click Share (arrow icon bottom right) 2. Choose BBcode 3. Select size you want to post 4. Copy the link and paste it to your post. You have to delete some parts, leaving only this portion from the middle: ---https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50911386382_3597505e75_o.jpg[/img]-- 5. Hit enter and your image should appear 6. Or on your post go to "Other media" (bottom right) click "Insert image from url" and paste it in there. Edited February 10, 2021 by crackerjazz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
