Do they exist anymore? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, John

I have no idea if this is what you need but Postimage.com is what I use for forum post photos. It's free quick and easy. You can set up an account or not. Works either way. With a free account you can save and organize you photos into folders. I have about 150 photos sitting there.
I would not trust them for general online storage / archive of my photos as they have been close to shutting down for lack of funds. They gained some advertisers and some sponsor help and I think are OK at the present.
I use pBase.com for my primary photo site but it is not free.
Google photos has free unlimited storage that syncs with all your devices/folders. However you cannot direct link to the image. It's a great additional layer of backup for your photos.
Imgur is the best free site for hosting images for linking. The have a desktop app and plugins for your browser that allow you to clip an image and immediately link to it in the forum and a host of other tools. All free.

I have just started with Postimage, seems to be ok so far for posting pictures, as below, but cannot get my avatar to post.

Flickr is good, they just ask that you use a special link that goes back to their site.
Yeah, I use it, too. I don't think that would work for an avatar, though. I don't think there is a way to follow Flickr's rules to post an avatar.

I found Tinypic.com works for hosting an Avatar, but it posts regular pictures at full size and doesn't downsize for posting. I am still searching for who to use for picture posting.
