|
|
For years I have been taking pictures, or grabbing pictures from other web sites and them posting them to Photobucket. Then, I can use that to post to this website. Well, a couple of days ago Photobucket changes their policy and now wants to charge me money for using their web site to post pictures to other web sites.
If this was for maybe $10 a year I would not mind. However, I just read they want $399.99 US Dollars A YEAR for this service!!! OUCH!!!!!
Guess I will have to find another web site and post my pictures there.
Anyone have a suggestion for me? |

This might work for you. I'm not sure since I never used it.

There are others out there you can find. Might have to google for the info. |

I use Goggle drive to share zipped files. It should work for pictures. Let me test it. You have to register, but it doesn't cost anything, and you can share files with anyone who has the link, or limit who can see it.
I'd recommend NOT uploading porn images.

Okay, for some reason the IMG insert didn't work, but a url link worked. |

Here is a free one. I've never used it either. I always show my stuff by dropbox links which is better then nothing. It's actually preferred if you show nude images or something like that so people can opt out of viewing it if the prefer to do so.

Go with Imgur!
I was with photobucket from 2012 til 2017 (when they started THIS crud)!
Let me paint a mental picture for you -
I'm living in a camper at a campground. I have to use foodstamps to buy my groceries. I can't be spending $400 just for photo hosting! I need the money to keep renting my spot, or I'll get booted out (trailor and all)!
