Who do you use to post your photos??

Post by Bergy » Wed Jul 11, 2018 10:13 am

I have been with photobucket for years but I am having problems with them again. I haven't been able to share photos for the past 5 days! My membership comes up for renewal 21 of this month and with the service I'm getting I don't want to pay them nearly $9.00 a month just to post a few photos. What or who do you use??????

I use https://postimages.org/ ... It's a free site I adopted on the advice of another Zazz member (JostLori) & it is extremely user-friendly. The site has had a single outage episode. I nearly had a panic attack when it happened. Just B4 the issue was resolved, I sourced this site: https://cloudinary.com/ ... It also appears to be a free site & I'm keeping it in reserve for a worst case scenario.

Photobucket engages in extortion.

I would recommend setting up a free blog on Wordpress or Blogger and just putting pictures on it with a title and then linking your pics wherever.
You don't have to actually *write* articles. I have things on the private end of my blog for all sorts of things.
And if it runs out of space, open another blog. I mean, the blogs are not limitless on bandwidth. but for posting on small forums, you would do better with it.
And the best part is, if you want to take it down later, all you have to do is delete the photo or break the link. Not like websites who think they own your content and can sell it to corporations for millions (you remember who did that).

I hope you get your pc fixed up.

Bergy, I still post my images from here, I do not upload them anywhere else. I right click on my image after I have posted it to a recipe and click on copy image address then I paste that copied link between the two IMG tabs.
