Image hosting sites needed

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Stupid question number 2

How do I get this link to show a pic on this page?

On the right side of your photo, you'll see a list of options to copy. Find the one that says "forums" or groups...or something like that. Use that copy button and it should show here.

ETA: BBCode (message boards and forums)

It only gives me the link and an option to "embed post"

Ok, it only gave me that option if I view it through my profile (weird) but it works thanks. I posted it but it's yuuuuge. Now I got to figure out the size thing

^^ Click on your account and go to All Images. Then click of the image you'd like to post and you'll get the options for BBCode, etc.

To add - It looks like you need to select one of the Thumbnail sizes to display that Image as it's HUUUUGE...I suggest you start with 'Large' to reduce the size a bit for that one.

For imgur I resized before uploading. Imgur resize option doesn't work for me.

When I generate the BBCode for pasting, I put an "s,m,or l" at the very end before the ".jpg" to get small, medium, or large. Those are relative and not set sizes so you may have to do a quick edit to your post here to change the s,m, or l.

Same thing happened to me, two days after I uploaded photos of about 30 guns that I inherited. No explanation, even though I requested one.

That is what I was curious of as well as that is who I use to post all images after the Photobucket BS.

They do a decent job and might be worth your appealing the ban to save the re-uploading, etc.

For information/reference purposes, here are Postimage's current terms of use.

quote:
Terms of Use
What cannot be uploaded to Postimage.org servers:

Copyrighted images if you don't own the copyright and are not licensed to do so.

Violence, "hate speech" (i.e. demeaning race, gender, age, religious or sexual orientation, etc.), or advocacy against any individual, group, or organization.

Images that are threatening, harassing, defamatory, or that encourage violence or crime.

Any images that might be illegal in the USA or EU.

If you are not sure whether the image you want to upload is allowed then do not upload that image. Uploaded images are checked by staff and images that violate terms will be removed without prior warning. This may also get you banned from our website.

Automatic/programmatic uploads are not allowed. If you need image storage for your app, please use Amazon S3 or Google Cloud Storage. Violators may be hunted down and banned.

Please keep the images embedded into third-party websites wrapped in links back to the corresponding HTML pages at our site when possible. The outgoing link should lead the user directly to our web page without any interstitial pages or interruptions. This allows your users to get access to the full-resolution images, and also helps us pay our bills.

They seem reasonable as worded.

Anyway, good luck with your appeal if you decide to go that route, and if not, hope you find another service to upload to.
