PixHost is an approved host, thumbnails of 200 x 200 are fine.

See also the thread, that Al Gebra linked.


Btw. as I saw you asked about it, using halvar's tool is absolutely easy!

I'm using at the moment version 1.19, but 1.21 should also be fine.

Get the link to dl the tool and a manual of BCFC here:

I just hope that we don't get an increase in pimpandhost postings because of some pic hosting sites currently shutting down. It's bad enough that it's still one of VEF's preferred hosts.

Speaking as someone who also lives in one of the 6 countries that have banned P & H at the ISP level thats no reason for members not to use it.

I've been on the record for years saying they are unreliable but given the circumstances
we cant really afford to not use them.

Spreading the load might just be what keeps more hosts alive longer.



Just got access to P & H through proxy www.anonymouse.org

In severe cases sometimes you need to go to a VPN (virtual private network)
or other methods

Um, I'm hoping that your advice is only meant to help members wanting to download from P & H and not to encourage them to upload there.

Looked at there settings this morning and the thumbnails now go back to 150x150 that's a good thing.

Not really. The thumbnails still have a 200 px size, it's just that Pixhost resizes them to 150 px in the gallery overview.

Please report how you can do that. I stopped to use IV 'cause it appears as my IP was blocked by the site. Probably because too many hosted files. Right now I'm using PiXhost but... whith 200x200 thumbs

Man, do I feel dumb now. I've always gone straight to "Classic Upload" where there is no such setting, but indeed there's a "Settings" link on the start page that allows you to adjust the maximum thumbnail size.



Voilà!
