Replacement for PHOTOBUCKET

[MM 6,562]

I've recently discovered photobucket is starting to censor my stored photos.

 

Here is what I like about photobucket (aside from their puritanical attitude):

 

1) Bulk uploader

2) Album support

3) Ease of selecting photos and then creating IMG encapsulation

meaning, I don't have to process one photo at a time, but rather can select a group of photos and have them

all formatted so they can be posted on the board

4) I am willing to pay a subscription fee to get the ability to host nude or sexual content

 

I think flickr has 1 and 2, but I don't know if it can be used to do bulk IMG tags for the forum like photobucket does.

 

Any ideas?

So, they're not serious about the following?

 

mageShack® reserves the right to remove or replace any uploaded files, and assumes no liability for lost registration links or misplaced file URLs. Changing ImageShack® linking codes is prohibited without prior permission. If you use any Imageshack's® service, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password and for restricting access to your computer, and you agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account or password.

 

The following types of files constitute "abuse" and may not be uploaded under any circumstances, when using Imageshack's® Image Hosting :

 

* Pornographic files. This includes, but is not limited to, files depicting genitalia, nudity, or sexual situations.

* Files that are illegal and/or are in violation of any United States laws.

* Files that infringe on the copyrights of any entity excluding the user.

* Non-image or non-video files. This includes archived non-image files.

* Files intending to harass or spam, or promote anything for commercial profit.

 

Or from their windows uploader:

Short version of the ImageShack® Terms of Service:

Don't upload anything that can be even remotely construed as porn, copyrighted material, harassment, or spam. If you do, we will ban you, delete all your images, and prevent you from viewing any images hosted on ImageShack®.

 

I'm not getting a warm fuzzy feeling about this site....or is this just a standard statement of policy that they ignore in practice?

Looking good. Anything but the obviously illegal is allowed.

 

I'll be checking out their ease of use features next.

Here's what imagevenue gives as a linkable image set...not too bad...

 

 

The free account only allows 40 pics at a time to be uploaded. I can link large images by subscribing to their service...and perhaps a higher number of uploads can be done in one pass as well.

 

Looking good, glen!

I used to use it to store photos and they never deleted anything. Not sure about hosting though.

If it's kept private, I don't think they will mess with it. You can post a link and the password.

I know other board members have put video and slide shows there (mrrobj comes to mind).

 

edit: I just went there and I remember why I cancelled my account. It's no longer free

I like the services that allow you to post the image on the message board without having to follow a link. Photobucket does that nicely, i think imagevenue does a decent job (and if i subscribe, I can get inline full size photos). flickr has a very primitive way to post photos outside their site...I've never quite figured it out, but I think you have to do it photo-by-photo. Yecch.

Those photos from image venue look decent to me MM.

What pisses me off is that the Borgs at photobucket are slowly moving through my pictures from the bar crawl and the party on the 9th and deleting photos.

 

As I looked again tonight, some awesome photos taken in a gogo were deleted from the bar crawl report.

Don't forget to mention each link is clickable to show the larger picture, although you do initially get an advertisement and have to wait a few seconds its worth the wait for the free hosting.

 

Always remember to choose either adult content or family safe in the drop down box to ensure your pics don't get removed.

 

You can also resize pictures which is a good feature

 

If you want to resize your jpeg file, enter the largest dimension of a new image:

 

Example: you have a 2255x3500 image.

For better viewing you want to resize it to 451x700.

To achieve this, you would enter 700 in the field above.

Good news: Image quality and aspect ratio are preserved upon resizing
