Need Extremely Reliable Image Hosting Site

OH GREAT!! Imgbb website is no longer free image hosting site. I have to look for new image hosting site for free for my FSX pics. That makes THIRD fiascos after Photobucket extortion scheme and FS Files website failure.

Anybody got a good idea for free unlimited image hosting site with extremely reliable reputation, please ??

I have to continue publishing my screenshots.

When Photobucket started to restrict free image hosting I switched to Imgur. So far I have no problems and no signs that they will restrict free image hosting in the near future.

Hi,
When it's free, you're the product. When as a product, you no longer represent any interest, it's over. It is the law of the market!

IOW, if it's free, don't expect it to last forever. Act accordingly.

But, yeah, I've been using Imgur for a while now.

I pay for Google Drive storage, but I haven't figured out how to share images from there reliably. Imgur seems to revel in sharing images.
 
I use ImageShack and pay the annual subscription.
There's no such thing as a 'free' service.
You get what you pay for and if you don't eventually pay for a service you end up with nothing.
At least by paying for my ImageShack subscription I know I'm receiving a reliable bone fide service.
:devilish:

 
I've used Postimage for many years, and it's free. If I had to start paying for it, I gladly would.


Den.
 
I have been using Imgur since the OzX image hosting site went down, and have found it to be excellent. It is fast, free, and reliable.
 
To my friends,

Thanks for suggestions and explanations.

I do not like Imgur because when I upload my screenshots containing specific file names into Imgur, the website change my file names to some sort of scrambled file names making it impossible for me to identify each of my screenshots to put explanations on each of screenshots.

My screenshots have specific file names for identification purposes.

For example, file name BR14KTPA tells me that the screenshot shows plane flying over KPTA airport and BR stands for the airport of arrival.

Another example is filename PH9SARO. This tells me that the screenshot shows the plane intercepting SARO waypoint and PH tells me that the airport of arrival is Edinburgh. And so on.

When IMGUR scrambles the file names, I cannot identity my screenshots and cannot write descriptions on each of my screenshots.

Regards,

Aharon
 
Thanks all for more tips. I have found three image hosting sites which allows unlimited screenshots while not changing file names which I am evaluating before selecting one.

And no it is not Imgur :)
