Photo Management recommendations.

Can anyone recommend any other website where I can store photos and link here besides Photobucket? That site is full of click bait and all sorts of other nastiness. 

Many thanks!

I always have a hard time posting photos within the size limitation. Seems like a standard iPhone photo is too large. Even tried shrink my pic app to no avail. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks so much. Had no idea we could help fund the site.  I'm a newbie!!! Looked and looked on where to officially sign up.  Found it in the store. Will sign up immediately (you guys should charge more...or request bottles of bourbon!!!).

I am curious to keep answers coming as well.  Photobucket has become so slow and full of garbage ads that I hate going on there.  I was about to go on a rant, but I think many of you have seen it.  

 

And I have a couple hundred pics stored there that I do not want to lose.

I hear ya. I have another website that I run and many of the photos are hosted at photobucket. I'm going to phase out. As for Here I just became a supporter and it works well. I can cut an image down on iPad by emailing to myself a smaller file or via  the "Image Size" app. The latter works real well, too.

I try to make all my pictures ~600X800. iPhone photos are too big right off the phone. I change the size on my Mac in Preview.

Ronnie, I just downloaded the "Image Size" app for iPad. I can cut down a 3-4 MB image to under the Crew limit in about 5 seconds and upload right from my Photos.  See sample below (143 kb)!!!

If you are a supporting member and post pics directly to the site (after resizing), you can select them again when replying to a future thread in seconds under "insert other media", then "from existing attachment", and then you can attach as many as you like to a post, no size limitation.  I can scroll thru all of my pics right off of the site, nice when you have a bunch of engine pics.

For example:Rear of trailer compressed.jpg2016 stereo resized.jpg2016 ribs 5resized.jpgYour mom on French toast resized.jpg2016 Art Prize fundraiser 2.jpg2016 winter storage 2 compressed.jpg2016 lift removal resized.jpg2016 engine pic 6 resized.jpg2016 Closed and open bows compressed.jpg454 engine starboard side.jpg2016 Luna and bu.jpg2016 New Coleman camper resized.jpg

I don't have nearly as much problem with Photobucket, from my Droid cell or tablet, or Win10 PC. A few ads, but no click bait, and I can paste the link right in the body of any forum or email. Guess I should just be grateful but it makes me wonder why.

Nevertheless, since it was mentioned, I decided to check out Amazon Primes photo hosting. Loading a pic was easy enough. But I haven't figured out how to post the picture. The link doesn't show a .Jpg filename so the forum doesn't allow it.
