Need New Image Hosting Site Please

Recommended Posts

Shalom and greetings all my pals,

Oh lord   FsFiles website has been down for 3 days. And this is second fiasco for me after Photobucket's extortion blackmail strategy. This is very inconvenience to me who makes hundreds of thousands of screenshots and now I need new place for more hundreds of thousands of screenshots.

I need new place to upload my screenshots.  Anybody got any idea for EXTREMELY reliable image hosting site?

Thanks,

Aharon

I switched to imgur when I noticed the same thing.  Not sure what happened at FSFiles because if I pull up my old screenshots forum posts the images are still there, it is just there frontpage that seems to be gone.  Someone might have hacked them, I do not know who hosted them but they were good people having a site like that.  Sadly I noticed some were posting porn there, which may have been why they were brought down.

Thanks all for kind replies.  I do not like imgur.

I hope so because I am very very very happy with FSFiles.org but I make hundreds of thousands of screenshots and I do not want to see my previous screenshot posts showing blank screenshots like Photobucket put blocked screenshots on my hundreds of thousands of screenshots in my past posts past 9 years.

Regards,

Aharon

That's where my hosting pics are, also.  I figured it had to be something like a hack, or whatever.  I tried and was successful doing a ping and tracert to their server, so it's still operational, but unable to access while they fix it.

Hang in there, Aharon!:biggrin:

I just tried the site and it is still way down, their dashboard is gone but the images still show up in posts I have made to the screenshots forum.  Switched to imgur as suggested, until they come back up.  Reminds me of the demise of the PC before my current one, it had Windows Vista, it went to look for an update, and it died in an infinite loop I could not break out of.  We have to be careful when narly little cyberfingers come and whiff at our operating systems, even if they are from the big guys, they have been known to put something out there with a major Sev 0 flaw....

Charliearon,

Thanks for your post.  I sure hope this problem will be fixed because I would hate to look for another image hosting website especially I like FsFiles.org very much.  I naturally prefer Photobucket that I used for nine years but I refuse to succumb to Photobucket's extortion attempts for ransom fees for holding my hundreds of thousands of screenshots as hostage.

Regards,

Aharon
