Photo hosting site suggestions

[Lsufan]

I tried google photos & couldn't get it to work on mobile eighther. I couldn't get the third party hosting from my mobile just like Flickr.

Postimage is the best way I have found on a mobile & it is actually easier to figure out then Photobucket was. If u go to the site it self explanatory & very easy to figure out. Tapatalk would be another good option on a mobile but I don't like the forum layout on tapatalk so I'm going to stick to postimage.

I go to the site & select upload & this screen comes up. I then go to choose images

Once u select a photo this page comes up & I just copy the direct link.

Then go back to rc & select/ paste just like u used to with photobucket. I didn't resize the pics so they are a little bigger & should be the size of u don't resize them. It is very easy & that is saying something coming from me, I'm not great with computer stuff.
Btw Matt, I have a iPhone so yours should be the same as this. I spent a week trying to figure out flickr, imgur, google & one or two more with little success. It took me 5 mins once I found postimage

As others have mentioned, I use postimage.org. It's free and super easy to upload, resize and categorize your photos. It's also very easy to link images to RC or any other forums you frequent. I've been using it for a few year without any problems.

I also use the postimage site to post from my mobile. When posting from my mobile, the image gets copied to my mobile clipboard and then I just paste it into the thread from there. Easy, Peasy:thumbsup:

I have a samsung galaxy. Once the photo is in my clipboard, all I have to do is touch the reply box in the forum I want to post in and touch paste. Very simple, but I'm not sure how it works on an iPhone, sorry.

Thanks again!

Hi DiscusHeckel,

I may have forgotten one step which I've added - please make sure that the particular album's sharing is turned ON like so:

I have created just a normal album (not a shared one) and followed your steps, it seems to be working. Shared album allows people to comment on your photos if you provide its link to them. So an album does not have to be a shared one. My previous picture disappeared from my earlier post because I deleted that particular picture by mistake.

Test.. from postimage. Unfortunately they don't have an app so you have to go to the website each time you want to post but I can live with that..
Here's my new WD. Going to also post on that thread..

Hat was 'direct link'..
Nope.
Here's 'hot link for forums'


Bingo!

I just went to the site & bookmarked it to my home screen so it's with all my apps on my iPhone screen

Fyi

Fyi

Postimage isn't on the soundest footing either. It is possible that due to photobucket's recent moves they along with other competitors will get more traffic and thus more revenue. User beware.
