Imageshack
nope wrong
plastered with ads, asinine amounts of work needed to get the actual image (upload >> click the preview >> click it again >> right click, copy image url) without all the imageshack stuff written on it, slow.



Filesmelt literally has no image size limit or bandwidth limit. The only stipulation is images are auto-deleted if they aren't accessed for 30 days. You can host more than just images as well.

In case you need some convincing, this image is 135 megapixels and 18MB:

Not embedded for obvious reasons.

imgur...there are no ads anywhere.

As much as I love imgur, that is false. There ARE minor ads on the non-hotlinking pages. Much less of a pain in the ass than imageshack and Photobucket for sure, but they are there.

I've never used it before, but I've heard decently good things about Minus. The file size limit is 2GB, but you have to sign up for a free account if you want them to last for more than 30 days.

This.
Or dataorb. :cookieMonster:
If I had a drag and drop script sure. Using FTP to upload images and get the links is far too slow.

Someone doesn't go for direct link I see.

i use image shack. you can link directly to images so that crap people say about watermarks just isnt true.
i dont get what you mean registering. like a login? most sites require that. though i want my files to be in a hosted folder i can access as well anyways.

In an effort to brag I did some research on megapixels and found out they are complete bullstuff.



Anyways this image is 184 megapixels at 135MB: http://img.dataorb.net/dink_smallwood_worldmap.png
It's a 1:1 scale map of a game world.

500 means server error, not client error.
I don't get a 500 error. I could try reuploading the image.

I have a separate blog titled FileDumpingLocation where I post all the images I need hosted. Works well and it has no compression.
