4. Photodump is another
and a search of "image hosting services" should turn up a lot, most with limited free hosting.

Did Photo Bucket get stuffy about something?

32. I have no problem with that
News Corp's servers help support my subversive web activities. All the non-body images on my blog are hosted by Photobucket. So nuts to them.

20. Ummm... about TinyPic....
TinyPic™ owned and operated by Photobucket.com, a free Image and Video Hosting company.

http://www.tinypic.com/about.php

It looks like every alternative needs to be researched, too.

24. Yeah, that's what I said.
Sort of.

Except what I said started with an "s" and rhymed with "it" ... :D

ImageShack seems to be an independently owned company as far as I can tell, located in Los Gatos, California. I think I'm going to try them.

31. Well
Edited on Mon Jul-09-07 11:44 PM by Canuckistanian
There was one that I used a few months ago, I think it had a funny name. It allowed you to do things like, well, you know, stuff with pictures. Anyways, I found it one day looking for sites about Aardvarks for my kid's school project (his teacher assigned it only two days earlier). Well, anyways, as I was looking through Google, there it was. But I got distracted and the power went out and the computer crashed and....

Oh, you wanted a fast answer?

I've got no clue.

33. Fox bought photobucket/tinypic so don't use photobucket? Why? Do you boycott The Simpsons as well?
As long as they don't alter my pictures, don't charge for it, etc., what's the big deal?

The Simpsons are on Fox. Are The Simpsons "bad"? They've made a BOATLOAD of money for Fox.

Do you boycott Fox movies as well like "Fight Club", "The Full Monty", or "Moulin Rouge"? Were these movies serving some fascist agenda?

In a mega-corporate world, you're not going to be able to eat or buy anything without SOME company that pisses you off being somehow connected to your life.

Until our Democratic representatives want to step up and start breaking up these megacorps, and I'm all for that starting with media and broadcast ownership, I say be aware, but seriously, hosting your pictures on Photobucket isn't like buying baby seal furs...
