good site for sharing images with thumbnail overview
Hi. Imgur used to be my favorite site for quickly sharing some images, but they messed up the site and now you can't upload a bunch of images easily to get a link with a thumbnail overview for quick sharing. Postimage has mysteriously gone offline it seems (oh I see they have some technical issues, hopefully a temporary problem). What are people's favorite sites for quick and convenient sharing of a bunch of images? My desired features are that it's easy to upload a number of images all at once to obtain a link to an overview of thumbnails. Here is an example of some random images (mostly abstract art): http://imgbox.com/g/ysUgD4qPx8 greetings and thanks in advance for any suggestions. |

Alternatively you can set up your own site and publish the images there. My host has packages starting at 5 Euro/month for 50GB webspace, unlimited traffic and three domains. And if you don't want to set up your site, you can for instance use pbase.com or flickr (just to make two examples). -- Alfred Molon Olympus E-series DSLRs and micro 4/3 forum at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MyOlympus/ http://myolympus.org/ photo sharing site |

Often I prefer sharing without any links to any accounts and the hassle of usernames and passwords. Though I also have a flickr account for sharing images in a more persistent fashion. If you can just upload images to obtain a link for sharing, that's easier for casual use on social media, chats or forums. |

There really is no need for the hassle of creating and maintaining accounts in case you just want to share a bunch of images quickly. Often I prefer sharing without any links to any accounts and the hassle of usernames and passwords. then link directly to where you stole them from, so that the creators get credit. Well, that's exactly what imgur used to do automatically (showing links to the locations where the uploaded images were originally found next to the uploaded images in an album), so that doesn't detract from the idea of quick and convenient sharing. If I search at google for images, it also links back to various sites where it found those images, but it presents them in a thumbnail overview independent of the way those images are found at their respective location. Besides, even if I upload images from disk rather than directly via the url, anyone can easily source the image via google to figure out who originally created or shared it or who deserves credit for an image (if this even applies). Though I also have a flickr account for sharing images in a more persistent fashion. hypocrite. You're just utterly clueless about the reality of how information is being shared online. Just as clueless as those idiots from playboy who were seriously suggesting they had the right to obtain ip addresses from the millions of people who viewed a collection of their images on imgur. https://torrentfreak.com/playboy-wan...-imgur-180313/ |

I shared a bunch of images quickly and conveniently via: http://imgbox.com/g/ysUgD4qPx8 At no point did I create any account at imgbox. I *could* create an account there, but the whole point of this discussion is that I don't have to create an account there just because I want to share a bunch of images quickly and conveniently. |

With your history in this news group, I don't have to wonder why. This thread in particular is about sharing images without the hassle of linking them to a personal account. Why don't you just post through an anonimizer? That will achieve what you are really after. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |
