lymanPhoto hosting for forums
looking for a photo hosting site to post a few pics here and there on the www as well as here,
is one better than any other?
I ditched photobucket when they got silly,
some sites I can just use the laptop or phone (via tapatalk on the phone) but some , like here, you cannot,
thanks in advance

Flickr is what I use, but I am a subscriber to Flickr for other reasons. It probably is not the best option for an occasional user just to post photos on a web board. Flickr has rules, and one of them is that it is necessary to include links back to Flickr with any photo they host being posted to another site. They do give a nice tool to make that easy, but failing to follow their rules can result in the account being closed. For the casual user who does not have other reasons to use Flickr, I suggest using any of the other hosts recommended.

bigwagonI like imgur, particularly when using the App. You can take a photo on your phone and upload it in seconds. Then it's easy to copy/paste the link to host on the forum.
