photo hosting

What photo host are you all using I keep seeing all my photos disappearing on this site.

I use FlickR -- but I also pay the $25 a year for Pro...

If you're talking about the service you can use inside the reply boxes here, it's https://servimg.com/.
They have been known to have outages on their servers and the images to never be seen again. We had that happen with forum buttons and images that went bye bye earlier this year.
Myself, in 2002 when I saw I'd be active on message boards etc, I decided to just go ahead and spend the ~$100/month to just go ahead and have my own web space. That way I have total control over whatever I may upload and how I back things up.
I'm not sure what free hosts are super reliable, but others here can tell ya.

Thanks bro, I was talking about the free hosting here on the site. I have two websites of my own but I haven't figured out how to post an image here with out useing this hosting. I am also working on my own forum I may try using that hosting service.

This forum, and most of them, use UBB code to handle pictures.

To put a picture here, use the IMG tags like this, except use the square brackets (just to the right of the P key), instead of these parentheses. Put an IMG tag before the picture's full URL and the tag with the "/" after the URL to close it, like this:

(IMG) http://wwww.fullimageurl.com/picture.img (/IMG)

Just use the appropriate left and right square brackets...

Tks, I figured it out. I just copied location and pasted it in the photo link.

Doh -- I was telling you the "hard way" -- if you edit your reply now, you'll see the tags I was talking about.
