IMG hosting??
IDK if anyone else has been experiencing what a PITA Photobucket has become??? (common issue searched on Google)
It has become impossible to even upload pics without waiting & waiting & waiting. Album organizing is horrid and post date sorting is pathetic.... I liked PB because it was easy to post direct [img] code without having to link back to like sites such as Flickr. (I know there are work arounds but their TOS calls for link back) Anyone have a good alternate to PB?

Photobucket is HORRIBLE these days! I still have my old account but never touch it.
I didn't know Flickr requires a link-back to their site. I have been using it for years, direct linking photos via IMG tags and have never had an issue. It's as simple as right click -> copy image URL, and you're good to go. There was a very short period where they played around with it and actually made the feature very, very difficult to use but it seemed like only a short trial, things went back to normal very quickly (likely due to how many complaints they received). I just took a look now at the FAQ. It seems they do 'require' the photos to link back to Flickr, but actually provide BB code that allows you to do it in a very non-invasive way. Quote:

I haven't even gone back to image shack in god knows how long. The convenience of some of the other sites, like PhotoBucket (not sure about flickr) is the availability to upload straight from your device and not have to connect it to your PC. However, given some or most of these are taken on professional cameras, I don't see that being a selling point for most members.

Heck, if enough people were interested on here and on Flickr I'd say we should start a Flickr photo group, where you include the photos in the group when uploading to Flickr. Pretty easy to do, I've been a part of other groups like this and it's cool to see what pics people are adding as they upload/tag them.

Used Flickr in my garage thread.
Massive improvement over PB.
