    Thanks! I would've had no idea. I just used Photobucket on Saturday with no issues. Will check out that other option. Cheers!

    Same thing happened to me, you can set the pics so only you can see them that is what I did.

    Imgur, so much faster and easier to use than photobucket. You can set the pictures to private from your computer or phone.

    I used Shutterfly with ease for some time. And then switched to Untappd, while using Twitter on occasion as well. I only use a laptop, so it's quite easy with all three. I upload the pic from my phone's memory card straight to the said website and right click to copy link & Voila.
    here is my WBAYDN post from tonight with using Untappd

    I switched from PhotoSUCKIT to Imgur a few days ago, and I wish I'd used them from day one. Very easy to use, and no ads.

    I believe you could get your own domain name and web hosting service for a lot less than $399 a year, which makes me wonder what PhotoSUCKIT's angle is.

    I use Google photos. Just right click on the photo and click properties. Then copy the link. It's free and since I have a good phone every photo I take is already there.

    Personally I'd dropped Photobucket over two months ago. They'd shown to prefer to develop more sepia tone filters rather than reinstate a tool that let you know which 3rd party sites were showing your photos. Their 2GB hosting limit seemed suspiciously easy to reach and their support people were incompetent or unable to understand simple questions in English.

    Postimage now, fast, convenient, ad-free.

    Just switched to Imgur after all of the Photobucket nonsense. Pretty happy with Imgur so far.

    I am using Dropbox. I started using it when you could store up to 1GB free, and there was a public directory to put images into and then share the link. Then last year I got notification that the public directory capability would go away, and although it initially appeared there was a way to share individual files, I just ended up going with 1TB paid subscription. This retained the public directory and gives me space to store other things.

    I note that the browsers I use are blocking Photobucket - luckily folks are abandoning ship there.

    I was able to download the Imgur app, register, and delete Photobucket in about five minutes. I' ll use whatever apps that I can access directly from Google Photos on my phone.

    I kicked the bucket a few months before they went uptown and I migrated to postimage.
    Postimage isn't one of the poll's choices so I chose 'other'.

    Postimage is very simple and intuitive, hell, even I figured it out.
