    Photobucket is the best. Gives a direct link to just copy and paste. Super easy.

    I use Photobucket, but that seems fancy-cool. One thing I like about Photobucket is all my beer picks are in one place.

    I find Facebook to be easy, but I want to spare my non beer drinking FB friends.

    So, I have been using Flickr because I already had an account, but it's a pain in the ass to get a bare URL.

    I take photos with my iPhone which upload into Photobucket, which works great, and which means I use my phone for all posting including reviews and adding beers and places...sheer tedium (admittedly due largely to my technology ineptitude).

    Tumblr

    Three years ago Tumblr was recommended a lot on here, that's why I started using it.
    It's not an option on the poll and it hasn't been mentioned in 3 pages.
    What the hell happened, where have I been?
    Apparently it has faded into oblivion without me knowing.

    Like many others, photobucket. I tried Dropbox, Flickr, and Google drive, but could never get any pics posted directly from my tablet.

    Used to use Photobucket back when the options were rather limited. These days I tend to use Imgur.

    Figured I'd give this old thread a bump seeing as how Photobucket has decided to fuck their members over recently, forcing them to pay in order to post their pics on third party websites like BA. You can read more about it here if you'd like.

    I actually started off with PB back in 2010 or something, and they pulled a similar move back then, axing my free/unlimited account without notice, preventing me from uploading or managing my pics without paying for a membership. I was pissed. It was at that point I switched to Flickr, where I have remained since. Click here to view Flickr's current membership options.

    Hopefully this thread can provide some help for the Photobucket-fucked BAs... :rolling_eyes:

    Cheers... :wink:

    Imgur works for me, and I am technically challenged. I'm equally amused and annoyed by the trolls that comment on my pics though.

    Yeah I've been photofuket from about day one. Since I use my phone like 98% of the time it was a little challenging. Then just recently downloaded the new app for phones and i could literally take a pic, save it, post it in like 1 minute. I had it down to a science. Really easy even when youre drunk. Plus I have thousands of beer pics saved on their site. Of course no way Im paying 40 bucks a month. Im sure they lost some business. Bad plan, hope it backfires. Now using imgur. Not bad but not as quick. Plus you have to remember to not post public otherwise you get alot of jackasses making stupid comments.

    You can upload to "only me" and the link will still share fine on here.
