What's a good free photo hosting site for sharing on sites like Canadian Poncho?
Permalink  

I know CP has direct photo uploads but some other sites I use require a web host and link. I used to use Photobucket but they now charge and I am cheap and don't like passing my credit card number around on the net if I can help it.

In using this type of service in the past, I had maybe 20-30 pictures uploaded so not a big user.

Thanks for any advice.

Don

Don, I use imgur for this.  Link: https://imgur.com/

Just click on the green "New Post" button on the upper left, and it will open up a window where you can drag the photo file, or upload it as is typical. 

When it's uploaded, just hover your cursor over the upper right of the photo, and click on the three dots that show up in the gray rectangle.  It opens up a menu, select "get share links" and there's a selection for BBCode that will give you a link to paste directly on most online forum configurations.

It's free and fairly easy to use, once you get the hang of it.  I don't do online albums, so I don't even know if you can do that.  All my online photo posts are 'one and done', so it's not a concern for me.

Hope this is useful to you.  (image below hosted on imgur)

I also use Imgur to host the monthly Poncho banner.

I know what you mean about pasting credit card info.
I have (2) cards, one most things and the other for
online stuff ($1500) max limit. Bank is always trying to get me to up
it, but no way as I can't get dinged for to much or the company.
