    So Photobucket......Need a New Photo Host

    I wake up this morning and all my posted photos have been turned into a notification which leads to a link to pay $400 to photobucket if I want to be able to post them on forums.

    What's a good free photo hosting site with an Android app for uploading ?

    It's got to be simple to use too.

    I downloaded Dropbox, but I'm not so sure that's the one....

    Thanks for the help !

          Photobucket is so inundated with adds it's barley usable, their greed will eventually be their demise.

            I was thinking the exact same thing but then they come and prove that nothing is so bad it can't get worse. Have you guys seen how much they want for that plan? It's US$ 400!! FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS! They are crazy!!

            By the way, testing OneDrive's sharing capabilities. Please let me know if you can see the pic correctly:



            Apparently the link works but the embedded pic doesn't?

                That's insane.

                I got my Flickr Pro account with unlimited space (not available for purchase anymore if you aren't subscriber) for 25$ a year.
                Apparently I need to start using that more the way Photobucket is going.

                  That's my main concern at this point. I have shared literally hundreds of pictures using Photobucket over the past 10+ years and now I have to find some other service. I tried sharing straight from OneDrive, where I have 1Tb and all my paintball pictures are hosted but apparently it doesn't work so well. Re-building the MOTM winners thread will be insane, especially with two kids now.

                          Well now that I know Imgur works, I'm gonna spend the next week transferring them, only problem that I see is I have no clue on how to organize them

                            I downloaded the imgur app and all I could do was look at pics that were there, I couldn't see any way to upload.

                            Same with flikr.
