I dont know if this would fall under this forum for sure so sorry if it doesnt :embarrassed:
But where do other people host thier pics?
I have a bunch on my computer right now. They are like a image log of everything i get and the day i got it. I have been doing it for 4 or more months now.

I like free :D thanks i'll check it out.
Do they have limits on the number you can put up and on how large each can be? All of mine are taken with my moms 3megapixel digitalcamera.
Edit i just checked it out. I am going to have to do TONS of rezising to make the 250 kb. per image

They have unlimited image space to upload too. Each image can be 1 meg. In the next few hours i should have new pics of my game/bedroom up there.

Thanks as well. I was just about to post a topic like this on here. I was also wondering were everyone hosted there pics at. I am going to have to try photbucket.com.
I wonder if yahoo is free to host pics as well. I mean isn't it free to get an email address through them??
Also, I was wondering how people put there pics on threads. I mean when the picture just shows up, and you don't have to click on a link.

Hey, why isn't anyone answering my above question?? (I am really curious, and would GREATLY appreciate it)
I do plan on using the www.photobucket.com place soon for some pics of my stuff. I guess that would be the best place to do it. It is free. I wonder if my aol has anything like that to host my pics??

Sorry i diditn even realise it. When you are in the reply page. There is a button 2nd from the left that says IMG. you get the link of the image online that you want ot show then paste it in between the brackets.

No, seriously. I could sit here and take up a bunch of time showing one neat tricks - I will show you one that might not be obvious - but all this stuff is covered in the FAQ.
Anyhow, here's how one posts a link with text showing in its place (replace < with [ of course):
<url=put yer www here>lols texts</url>
Plus if you ever wonder how somebody put something in their thread, what the text string for an emote is (i.e. ROFL), you can always hit the Quote button by their reply.

Sorry I'm just seeing this thread now!
I'm sure you know about our "Ultimate Game Room" site www.videogamecollectors.com - well, I'm hosting three pictures for everyone on that site, but have done many more for those who asked, like "NESvidiot", Al Backiel or Mike Mika, for example.
I've been a little lax with updating that site but I'm coming around to it... so feel free to contact me and we with your pictures and I'll take care of ya.

Yeah, I have looked at your collection pics in yahoo before. You took some great pics, and I do like how yahoo does them. (I have seen other picture hosting places before and didn't like how they organized them and such)
I guess all you have to do is have a yahoo account to use there picture service and is it free? And it is free for that. (But maybe not to host pics)

Heck yeah I am familar with the "Ultimate Game Room" site on here! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE seeing pics of everyone's stuff! (I look at them ALL all the time and it never gets old)
And while my collection isn't even half of most people's on here I am still proud of the stuff I do have and would like to show everyone. Also, my collection isn't organized the EXACT way I want it yet, due to the lack of shelves and such that I still need to buy, which alot of that is on the way to me, I still was going to put out everything I have so far.
I'll DEFINATELY contact asap when my room is ready Joe.
THANKS ALOT!!! :)
