    Photo Hosting?

    I found Photobucket to be simple and effective to use for online photo hosting, but alas they have stuck it to all of us.

    Can someone recommend a simple, easy to use, free site for photo hosting? Note interested in storage.

    I use Google Photos and Imgur most of the time.

    Thanks Ray!!

    Tried Imgur--when I copy the URL of a photo to Autopia it states it is an invalid file. Any idea what I`m doing wrong?

    Here is a typical URL from a photo downloaded to Imgur: https://imgur.com/j9v9mzJ

    Take your image link and put it around brackets

    [IMG] Image File [/IMG] -> remove spaces

    Or click on the insert image button followed by clicking "From URL" when the pop up comes up. That will put the image into your post

    If I click on the Insert Image button, then "from URL" is when I get the Invalid File note.

    Think I figured it out--by adding a .jpg to the URL the image posted fine, but I got the full size image and the thumbnail of the image. How do I avoid getting the thumbnail image?

    If I load the full size image I don`t get the thumbnail, but the image is huge. Any ideas? Guess it corrects itself to a more reasonable size. Thanks!!
