Image Hosts

[Sam Spade]

As you know, ImageBam & ImgBox are closing down, everything hosted by them will be lost after the 30th June 2017.

Unfortunately we will lose an awful lot of content posted here, with the best will in the world there is no way a lot of major posters can save and re-up the material they have posted using those hosts.

This forum will carry on, eventually all the dead posts will be either re-upped or removed, and no doubt a large percentage of the material will sooner or later be reposted.

What we do not want is to have this happen again, where we rely too heavily on one image host, we want members to use a variety of hosts, this way if one of them does close down the damage will not be as severe.

So, if you know of a reliable host please make a reply and link us to it.

Currently we have a thumbnail size rule of no more that 180 x 180, we are looking at that rule and may amend it to a maximum of 250 x 250, if the host is a good one, a gallery option is preferred, but that rule too is being looked at.

What we do not want is cash hosts, or hosts that swamp you with ads and pop ups/unders.

Please upload a few images with your host, and link us to the main page, if when you preview your post you find that your post looks like this...

....it means that the host has been banned here.

It is also desired that the host allows adult images.
