maddox710 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Theres loads of image hosting websites just look about Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I've not found any easy ones to use off of my phone, if using a desktop/laptop then imgur has been suggested. I been googling around and seen that Smugmug.com is recommended fairly often but is $5.99 a month, in theory that should future proof against them introducing a huge annual fee in future but don't take my word for it.

morgey Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Just downloaded it. Actually seems pretty good, sort of feels like facebook but in a forum skin. Will see how i get on with it over time but if you're not sure I'd give it a go. for now heres a random pic to test its functionality. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

morgey Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 i use photobuket all the time, have it as a app on my samsung tabletTheyve introduced a paid for service now, you cant hotlink to forums without paying $400 a year now. Look at my build thread and you'll see all the images are blanksSent from my SM-G903F using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Keri-WMS Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 It would be a slick move for the forum software companies to create a tool that allows a user to download their images, host them on the forum, and edit all the links, automatically! BUT........I bet photobucket will have a thing that detects an account suddenly accessing all it's images at once and stops it working. I'm disgusted with them, they have destroyed the work of millions of people who have invested their time to help millions of other people learn online - just to make the minority who are willing to pay $400/yr cough up.

Whitenoize Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Tapatalk is the way forward so user friendly and piss easy to upload pictures why did I not know this before lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Keri, the admin might be trying something similar but not sure if its possible yet, fingers crossed though. Whitenoize, i agree completely, i put it off for so long only to find out its really easy to use and great for keeping ontop of multiple forums you're on. I will be purchasing the ad free version when im back in employment lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Hey all for anyone having trouble getting your images down to 2mb so you can upload straight to ukso i use the below app on my phone hopefully will be usefull to a few of you. Youll need to use the full website template to up load pictures as you cant do it from the mobile version. Cheers Nick Quote Link to post Share on other sites
