It drives me crazy! I need a photo hosting service (paid or free) where I can load pictures to post that are more then 250K, I can't beleive that I am the only guy with a Digi cam that takes large file pitures? Please let me know what it is that you guys use.
Thanks

goto www.doteasy.com and purchase your own URL like www.holesaleherps.com or whatever you want (www.stupidpichostingthingy.com ).. pay the $7.95 a month.. and have 1000 megs of server storage for WHATEVER YOU WANT.. make yourself a website.. yada yada.. doesnt matter.. its urs!..

then upload your images to THAT website.. and link to them..

paying for a hosting service is insane.. especially when they are overpriced and you cant remote link to 3/4 of them..

best of luck

I'm not sure, but I recall kingsnake.com's gallery having a premium service for larger space... I haven't looked in a long time.

I wouldn't get a "photo/image hosting" service at all. You'd be better off just buying a domain name and webspace so you'd have full http/ftp/ssh capabilities. A lot of them come out to the same price give or take, and in exchange for a little difference in price you can make a whole site of whatever you want. And with the space you could hold copies of important documents, etc.

Where ever you go, just make sure they allow off-site linking, that's what matters: the ability to refer to specific files on your space/site from anywhere on the web.

Personally, the University of AZ gives me a very generous amount of webspace as a CS major.

For web use, it's never necessary to have images that large, and it's painful for people on dialups to load them anyway. Get some image-editing software and use jpg compression to get your file size down.
