My experiences during the last days/weeks:

1. ImageBam is a f*cking desaster. Even when switching all add-ons off and using Firefox/Palemoon/Opera alternatively, I seldomly succeed to get all pics uploaded. Very often, 3 -5 pics are uploaded uncompletely. As Imagebam does not embed the original filenames in their BB-codes, it turns to be a time-consuming fiddling to bring picture-sets up properly - especially a PITA if you upload larger pic-sets. Basic-Upload is no option in that particular case, even though it seems to work more reliably.

2. Imagevenue is a desaster as well because it still has this buggy arrangement of files after upload and you need to manually add spaces in order to have a proper laylout. O.K. for smaller pic-posts, not feasible for larger sets.

3. ImgBox works well (you need to switch off add-ons, though), however in general I dislike the fact that it takes incredibly long until the thumbnails are fully loaded.
Heavily annoying when you look at pages that contain larger picture-sets being hosted at ImgBox.

If a.m. problems do persist, I will consider to start posting picture-sets as zipped files. If links/files are maintained & monitored, there is no loss in content and completeness is guaranteed.
For collectors of entire sets, this is the most important requirement. None of the Image-Hosts can guarantee that.
