Hey, beast. You can try Tinypic:

http://tinypic.com/

Here's a short tutorial on how to use it:

I haven't used it in a long time so I don't know the particulars...but it is free.

  This was right at the head

  "TinyPic is a photo and video sharing service, owned and operated by Photobucket.com, that allows users to upload, link and share, images and videos on the Internet."[1] (http://www.wikihow.com/Upload-an-Image-to-TinyPic.com#_note-1) This wikiHow will show you how to upload images to TinyPic for sharing.


  I wonder if they are going to do the same as photobucket?

Crap! I totally forgot about that. LOL Who knows what they are going to do...

If you have a Google account you can use Google Photos and here are some others:

How are you trying to post the pic...like an attachment?


EDIT: I was watching some of the posts there in the "Fail" tags and they are FUNNY!!!

Yes, I believe it has something to do with that URL and could also have to do with the Simple Audio Video Embedder mod I use...


EDIT: Just tried it on Ken's site which does not have the same mod installed and it also does not work there, too. So, it's either a SMF bug or something to do with the service. They may not allow hotlinking.
