Picture Hosting Site

Post by jason1977 »

I am growing tired of using Photobucket. Very slow site and prone to being down alot. What are my other options?

Thanks,

Jason

Yeah Dakka is pretty awesome for that. The bonus is most users host their trade ad there too!

I've seen people use IMGur as well.

Oh, they host a trading section too? I didn't know that.

Oh, and congratulations on promotion to Admin.!

Yeah it's called the swap shop or something.

And thank you!

I use Dakka, as well... almost exclusively.
They only allow gaming related images, though.
Uploading a large amount at once can be a... chore... but it's worth it, IMO.

They do have a swap shop there. I've used it a number of times, Porkuslime uses is a lot. MANY of out BT regulars do.
Just keep in mind that your guard there needs to be "up" a little more than here, as we have measures in place that they don't, since we're TRADE focused and they're DISCUSSION focused.
Not a criticism, though, and I definitely DO NOT think that should keep you from utilizing it.

And you can totally use their image hosting without using their swap shop, if you choose.

Heck, I just make it public on Facebook, add the sales post as a comment and voila, another sales ad. Just made a couple of sales through there. Then post here and add a link to the album here and voila! again (lotsa pics and I'll admit it, I was too lazy to post them all individually...). And yes, I also use Dakka.

I tried the facebook thing and it was just more annoying. Might just be personal preference though.
