It's been ages since I took pics of minis and shared them online. I was thinking of doing so again after taking a long break from doing so. Question I have is what free photo sites do I use now? I use to use a certain site. For the live of me I can't remember what it was. It was one of the most common ones people used back in the day.

Thing is I am not social savy. I don't know what is out there and what people use now. Would like to know what should I use. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

They've removed their "gallery" so now photo uploads are just private posts ,but you can click the three ... in the corner of an image to get the share links including one for forums with the image tags.


Photobucket went paid for
Flickr and Deviant Art can both be used for free (flickr eventually has a charge after X number of photos); but both are a pain to share on forums with as you have to go hunting to find a direct image code.

Thank you so much Overread. Long time no see. Are you the same Overread on the Tyranid Forums? Been ages since I saw you. I hope all is well.

Yes that is what I used Photobucket. Thank you very much I will go and creaet an account now.

Yes same overread! I don't get around forums as much as I used too; then again sadly many forums aren't always as chatty as they once were too.

Imgur is fantastic. You can upload on your phone in seconds or upload through the site. You can easily get [i m g] links after upload and paste them into forums

Thanks Steve. I totally forgot about the I M G tags.

yes, use Imgur, though its blocked in some countries. Also each public post in Imgur is limited to 50 images, so you have to do some sorting.
