AOL killed my websites. What's the best way to post pics until I get a new isp?

AOL killed my...oh, just read the post title and you get the point. I have a really cool project I want to share and I need to post pics.

Thanks,

Gary

photobucket.com is your friend...

Yeah, Gary, what he said.

And there's some threads in the off topic forum about webhosting suggestions. I'd check them out.

That's what I did when Geocities started crapping on my site.

photobucket all the way. Extremely easy and stable...I've been using it for 2-3 years without any incident.

Yeah, photobucket, although myspace also offers pic hosting with links, just in case you already have a MS account.

Myspace is blocked by a lot of places where people work, as are most social networking sites. So I'd recommend avoiding it for picture hosting, as a fair amount of your viewers will not be able to see photos. I'm a big fan of Flickr.

Thanks everyone!

As you can see from my Resistance Bullseye post, I went with Photobucket for the 12 pics that I put up there. Getting them uploaded to Photbucket was a breeze but posting the pics on this site was a bit more complicated (got to the Photobucket page, copy the link for the individual pic, go back to the RPF, hit the "insert image" button, paste the link address, hit enter..repeat process). For 12, it's not that much of a pain, but now folks want to see the 140 progression pics. Can I just upload all of them, and then post the link to the entire Photobucket page in the rpf post...or is their another way?

Yes tick the little checkboxes under the pics you want to post go to the bottom of the page and click generate img codes it will then generate all the codes on one page, you just copy the one named images for message boards to post fullsize images or if you wish the one named thumbnails for image boards to post thumbnails which when clicked link to the fullsize image.
Just paste the codes in your message on the forum no need to use the img button.

Or you could just make the album public in account settings and post a link to it.
