All Photobucket images removed from the site

[Susan]

All photobucket images have been removed from signatures and blocked from displaying in posts (even if you have paid them for the privilege). I will not tolerate spammy images extorting their customers, my poster to pay to display their images on my site.

Posts affected will state [Link Removed] for links, or [Image Removed] for images.

My recommendation is to find another image hosting provider.

Please take note: If your image host displays a large image advertisement when a image is linked to my site, or even when simply not found, they risk all images from that hosting provider being removed or blocked from my site as well.

I am looking at you tinypic...

Does anyone have a recommendation for image hosting? Which sites should we use?

[Julia1996]

I use Imgur.

[Dena]

Drop box is being used by several members however when you capture the link, you need to change the dl=0 or 1 at the end of the link to raw=1 for it to display to everybody.

I've always used imgur.

I've tried imgur on my android tablet with poor results. The URL always gets jumbled. If tinypic gets removed, will my avatar go away? If so, you'll just have to remember what I look like.

Another vote here for Imgur.

I did have some issues a while back with the Android app, but have found the browser version of the site works just fine. I also like that it gives a selection of links, depending on the destination.. It also gives a link straight to the image, without any extra fluff.

I don't use the imgur app, I go to the site in the browser and copy out the direct link for the size that I want then use the 'insert image' link on the forum.
