grungefreek Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 Hey Guys, Im pretty sure this has been discussed before, but i couldnt find it, and also thought it may be in forum Faq, but it says i am denied access ???? Anyway, how do i post pictures in my posts??? more importantly which are the best free sites that offer space for photos that can be viewed strait in the post and not as a link.. Thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Panga Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 grungefreek, You should get a free webspace with your ISP. They normally give you about 10mb space. You can check by visiting you ISP's website to see. Once you have worked all that out you upload your pics there and then just link to them from there.

grungefreek Posted March 22, 2004 Author Share Posted March 22, 2004 i live on campus at University, so no space is allocated to us for uploading. Im sure there was a list of free sites that were good for picture uploading, maybe it was on another board, not that i would visit another board!!!

fiona Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 Are you sure you don't have Uni web server space? I am at UWS and I have some automatically allocated to me while I am a student there. Anyway, just did a bit of Googling, came up with this: http://www.piczonline.com According to the front page, you can have up to 1MB of pics hosted free and it allows hotlinking. Haven't tried it myself. There is also this one, keeps the pics for 15 days. http://www.auctionpix.co.uk Hm, or the netscape one, up to 20MB for free http://mywebpage.netscape.com/ I was using that but had some trouble with it a while back, just logged into it again and a few old pics are there, I am testing it below ... Yup, it works, I can hotlink to it! Hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citypainter Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 You can upload to webshots.com . Then cut and paste a link to the site and people can view your pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cichlids_au Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 I don't recommend Webshots because they use spy ware and you never get rid of the popup's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citypainter Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 I think they all use spyware. It seems to be the nature all of the hosts these days. Can you name a good alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiona Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 I use Webshots ... I also run Adaware and Spybot on my computer and clean out spyware regularly ... I don't get pop-ups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cichlids_au Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 I can't recommend any that will allow you to hotlink. I paid for some space with FotoTime.com. Fiona's software is good, but I wont look at any shots that are kept there as I don't want to clutter my PC with little programs to deal with it. I just hate the popup feast they have when I go there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiona Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 I just run them as a matter of course coz you get spyware when you least expect it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
