Google photos. Not sure if you have to have a Google account to view or not?

At least some parts of Imgur don't allow linking/embedding. See it all the time on another site.

I still use Photobucket but you are right, it is PAINFUL sitting there waiting for anything and everything on the page to load. I might have to start checking out the images in my library and copy the ones I do not have / lost back down to my HD as it just is not fun anymore....

Agreed, I use photobucket and it went to garbage once they started adding tons of ads. I think it is on purpose so you pay a monthly fee to get rid of them. I have hundreds of pics there, if I left all my stuff would be gone from my threads.

I checked the comments on Photobucket website, and people are paying for the subscription and still getting crappy website service speed. In the Phone app doesn't even work anymore. The image code is useless

Agree. I'm still there but don't use the mobile application. I have so many photos and files that going somewhere else would be a bigger pain than working around their BS. I pay to avoid the ads. I tried to get their tech help on the mobile app problems, but got nowhere trying to explain the problem so gave up. Using the legacy app works on my iPhone, so I get by. Stu

Unfortunately you have to down load them to your computer first, then you can post the image from your files. Every picture I take on my phone is saved to Google Photos which is a cloud service with unlimited storage. Then when I open Google Photos on my laptop the images are already there. You can view all your pictures on Google Photos and choose which ones you want to download.
