Default What's An Alternative Photo Hosting Site Besides Photobucket?

Any guidance would be appreciated since all of my old photo's won't link anymore since Photobucket decided to screw over all of it's members with this BS membership.

There was a post a few weeks back that was a link on how to fix Photobucket without membership, it was more of a 'patch' really. I just wish I could remember who posted it. Perhaps do a search for that.

Try Flickr.

The patch will only work until photobucket changes the code.

I just embed them directly here on the forum. Then there is no need to worry about the middle man.

Ya but then you can't annotate each image for situations where you're creating a "how to" article, which I often do.

Makes sense. I just usually have them on my computer and use paint or an online photo editor when I need to edit the photo. To each his own though.

When you do that, is there a way to change the size of the photos from larger than life to say 600 x 800 pixels?

I've been using Image shack for years. They offer a free but limited account, if you post a lot of pics like I do their paid membership is very reasonable.

You would have to resize them probably online. If you do a bunch then my way is probably not the most efficient.
