F**k Imageshack

...and their tracking cookies expiring sometime in 2036.

For non-sensitive pictures (i.e. not tracker reviews, etc.) here's a nice host that won't set an idiotic cookie every single time you download an image from them:
Free Image Hosting at FreeImageHosting.net - Upload Images for MySpace, Blogs, and Galleries

Another one:
http://wimg.co.uk/

And use BayImg for sensitive things you don't want to have taken down. They won't delete anything unless it's illegal under Swedish law or you choose to do it (entering a kill code is compulsory when uploading).
bayimg - free uncensored image hosting

I'm tired of Imageshack's shit, I'm blocking their servers entirely in Opera from now on. They didn't do this in the past.

why would you allow cookies from them in the first place?

[Blocker]

I'm tired of Imageshack's shit too, But I prefer TinyPic - Free Image Hosting, Photo Sharing & Video Hosting Images get uploaded faster than many sites

I can't block cookies for specific servers in Opera. The blocks don't survive across restarts, more exactly.

cause of your portable version?

[anon]

No, it's an Opera bug. Reported it once, they didn't fix it.

i think the version i tried last time didn't have that issü. but i'm not sure. i think i tried 10.60 snapshot or something

[SBfreak]

So are those 3 you posted in the first post allowed right now on sbi?

[anon]

BayImg always was. The others are, too, from now on.

Captcha when uploading.

It's totally worth the 4 seconds it takes to type it in. Tinypic is an awesome service.

[Instab]

Tinypic is an awesome service.

how so?

[Sazzy]

It just is. It has everything you would ever want from an image host imho. I've tried out many and I've always found myself returning to tinypic. And it allows uploading of vids too. (though some others do, too)

It's easy and straightforward. And somehow I find it far more reliable than imageshack. My main point was that filling out the captcha shouldn't be a big deal since other than that, the service is great.

can you delete pics without having to register?

[Sazzy]

In their faq:

Q: How do I get an image removed?

A: If you have uploaded an image in error or need it removed, you can send us the link via the Contact Us page. Or you can simply mark it as offensive and it will be scheduled for deletion.


I think they go by the policy that pictures don't get deleted. In all honesty, I don't know why you would want to delete it. If the picture is THAT temporary, just mail it. If you use it for a long time and upload a new updated one, just forget about the first one tbh.

in many cases i wanna show something to one or several persons and i don't have nor want their mail and i don't want them to have mine. a very common example would be ratio proofs.
anyway i don't want such pics to be online any longer than they need to be. that's why i prefer imagebam. there i get a delete link right after the upload and i don't have to register for that
