Ah, the "you get what you pay for" syndrome :wink: .

The couple of pics you posted of your "domain" did take a little while to load but I attributed that to the size of the images. What kind of problems are you seeing?

Not free, but I host my own images at my web site providers (1and1.com and freewebs.com). Takes a little more work since I use FTP to upload the photos and arrange the subdirectories. Not sure if there's any way to setup "albums" or not. The bonuses are that there's no advertising, no size limits, and as it's primarily a web host, it has great uptime.

Have you tried Gallery for your photo albums? I use it on my 1&1 linux account and it is pretty simple to install and use. I'm still on version 1.5.x; 2.x is too much for a few albums.

BTW, if anybody wants to open a 1&1 account feel free to use my referral number http://www.1and1.com/?k_id=9087186 :wink:

I use Photobucket too, no problems and it takes just about any image size to upload.

I noticed the firefox extension stopped working for me the other day. Transload works via the site, so I have to wonder if they finally disabled/blocked the extension uploads. :? :x

But they don't suck as much as Gmail...

Imageshack sometimes work well but most of the time, they lag like $*!t.
