    Or I could just continue to use photobucket if that is all right with you?

    So people can see what they are buying. I thought that’s pretty necessary..

    This is mainly for people who post no pictures at all or just throw in a single url to photobucket or whatever other terrible image sharing site.

    To the OP – how about **** off…? The forum has been working just fine for those of us who’ve been around a little longer than a month…

    There are other forums if you don’t like the way we do things around here…

    Yeah, we thought that about you, but where just too polite to say it.

    All I did was suggest a useful site for people who don’t post photos in their ads. You can keep typing with one finger on win95 if you like but I think things can and should be improved. Gonna stop posting now so you can keep being immature amongst yourselves 🙂 have fun.

    There’s nothing I love more than forum ‘members’, with a handfull of posts, all of which are in the classifieds, informing us that we aren’t doing things the way he wants it done.

    Classic thread… 😐

    I still can’t quite get my head round people coming on here to flog stuff in the classifieds then not contributing in the slightest by posting on the other forums.

    Well said loddrik 😀

    How did we all manage before “realconspiracy” came along to tell us all how we should be doing it all properly?

    I must admit although the delivery was totally wrong the link has actually allowed me to post my first ever photo on stw (voodoo wanga for sale – plug plug!)

    Any image hosting software will do the same, in much the same way. Just that Photobucket and Flickr will do it better

    I don’t think that takes much working out, if you’re selling stuff, you want maximum exposure, so you post on all the MTB forum ads. STW might not be you prefered forum for general chit chat tho. I’ve posted my ads on other forum ads (that’s what they’re provided for I assume), but don’t necesserily bother with them otherwise, it’s no big deal IMO.

    Ohhh get you!

    Anyways, regardless of the OPs brusqueness, imgur is actually really good for quick image hosting and has lots of automated solutions, browser/OS plugins, to make uploading to it easy. Plus it needs no registration and has no adverts.

    What you’re saying is that Imgur is for simpletons then?

    I don’t see that there are no photos in any ads so it’s not like everyone is struggling… however it looks like the OP couldn’t take the heat and has left.

    zero to flounce in 3 posts. Must be a record.

    I looked at too, he does have a point it is is useful for those that just want a simple place to host images but his attitude isn’t great.

    I used http://hostphotofree.com/%5B/url%5D last week and it seems fine. Having seen some of the OP’s comments in the For Sale section, I don’t think he/she’ll be missed. Bit of a stroppy twunt.

    He makes a good point to be honest. It’s a right PITA asking for pics for everything you’re interested in.

    I fail to see how it could be much simpler than IMGUR since you just drag your files from the Finder/Explorer/Nautilus directly into the browser window to upload, and it generates the IMG link for you.

    I’m glad that some may have found this useful.

    I don’t see why people don’t put ads straight into their posts and so I assumed the problem was that it takes too long.

    Fed up of seeing ’email me for pics’ or a link to photobucket album with no descriptions of the photos I thought I’d share a link to imgur.com.

    With that site, there’s no registration so it takes a matter of seconds to get a link direct to your photo. imgur > flickr, photobucket etc.

    Feel free to keep posting, flame as much as you like, more people may see this if you do. Thanks.
