Hi All,
I've been having problems with Photobucket latterly and I'm looking around for a new image library. I will in the near future be closing my PB account which means all the images to my various threads will disappear. I still have most of the original images but I don't see how I'll ever be in a position to go through each thread one by one and replace all the images.
Any suggestions for image hosts/libraries gratefully received.
Keep safe
Francis

I think I've probably used Imgur.com the most since Pbucket went pear-shaped. It's OK.

Postimage works OK for me...but there may well be disadvantages that I'm unaware of? postimages.orgA real shame to be losing all those beautiful build thread pics...you put so much effort in...understand why you are doing it though.

Yes I have used Postimage for all of my build threads since Photobucket went down a few years back, worked fine for me. Oh and yes I did rebuild a couple of my threads after Photobucket, long tedious job!

Test worked fine! Apologies if you know this but one of the really useful features of postimage is the ease of copying links. If you click on the icon next to the link it copies the link t the clipboard so you don’t have to manually select it. A real bonus on a tablet where selection is a bit hit and miss.
