NOTE REGARDING MISSING PHOTOS

Chreteau · Post by **Chreteau** » October 1, 2004, 1:51 pm

Regarding the missing images from my postings, it appears that I've exceeded my daily usage limit. Oops.

Rather than steal bandwidth by linking directly to the photos, I opted to host them on VillagePhotos.com. Apparently between the views on here, on another board, and on my livejournal, the usage limit disappeared.

I'm working now to find an alternate host, and will ask the moderators of each forum to edit my posts to include the proper image links.

Thanks.

You do know that there is an image hosting hack installed on this board, right?

On my way out to a meeting/party/snob fest/i'm getting drunk at the bar. I'll upload to the board tomorrow. In the meantime if the mods want to delete the posts with broken images and links, please do.

There's also Photobucket.com. You sign up and the give you an online photo gallery with like unlimited space. That's what I upload my photos to.

Photobucket isn't unlimited with a free account. The space might be unlimited, but the bandwidth isn't. Photobucket, which I looked at yesterday, offers 25 megs a month. VillagePhotos offered 10 megs per month, and I went over that in one day. Problem is I posted a couple photos to another forum, and after a high number of views, my bandwidth was used up.

Oh well.

Ah, bliss.

Found http://www.onepic.com. They don't even make you register an account, they just upload your photo and give you a URL to link to. The deal is unlimited uploading, unlimited bandwidth, photos are deleted if they don't receive a single hit in two months. The only catch is they paste a very small text banner on the bottom of the photo.

Things I really like is that they will resize the photo for you, not that it's all that difficult, but if you're sitting in a computer lab without the benefit of PhotoShop and you want to resize a photo, calculating the pixels to keep it proportionate is a pain in the butt.

Anyway, thought I'd share.
