Chas Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 It has recently come to my attention that my image-hosting service has , on occasion , been serving up ads in place of my images . The host server does not however , serve the ads to my IP address , which is pretty insidious . So , I am looking for a new host . Can anyone here recommend a free or low-cost image-host that does not watermark or affix ads to images , and whose servers have very little down-time ? Obviously , all hosted images must be hot-linkable . With a free service I expect pop-ups and banner ads on the upload page , but I do not want to serve ads to anyone else . Quote

I recommend picturevillage.com According to the info displayed on my free account, albums, photos, space and bandwidth are all "unlimited" (which makes me wonder why there's a link next to it to "upgrade"). The only thing is, bitmaps aren't allowed. Allowed formats are: .jpg, .png, .gif, .swf, .mp3, .wma I've linked a lot of images from picturevillage to the org and as far as I know, no one's ever seen ads or blank spaces instead of the pics.

Chas Posted August 19, 2006 Author Report Posted August 19, 2006 John , Dan and Chris thanks for your posts . I will give Photobucket a try . It has greater storage and bandwith allowances than PictureVillage . Scott , congratulations . Now all you need to learn is how to ' color within the lines ' Quote
