Image Hosting · 6:57pm May 7th, 2018
It seems like every time you turn around, another image hosting service has blacklisted Fimfiction. Postimage.io has finally done so, and looking at a few other profiles, it seems I'm not the only one having this issue.
As part of my comeback, I'll need to reupload my logo banner, as well as rebuild the Biblical Monsters Visual Companion for the fourth or fifth time. If anyone knows of a good image host, I would be much obliged.
Cheers,
HV
Rats. I was using postimage.io . There goes the images to maybe a hundred of my blog posts.
Imgur seems to be working alright again.
I've been using Photobucket for like 10 years. It works great, but the ads are annoying.
I write in Google Docs and copy paste into FiMfiction. It has not failed to work yet.

Isn't Photobucket the one that was like "if you want to link images, pay us lol"? :/
Imgur's been working again for a while, something to do with how FIMFic caches images now.
I'll host you bby
Aw man. That was the one I used most often.
4855609 Yeah, but I think that they ticked off enough people with that that they dropped that.
Or at the very least greatly reduced what they wanted folks to pay for 3rd Party Hosting.

Oh wow.
I actually moved all my images from there, I'd been using them for... probably around ten years. <.<
Now tinypic apparently works, iisaw just posted a blog post using it...
4855843 Yup.
And I know how you feel here.
I used them for at least that long myself, til they started the "Hey, pay us $399.99 for a year and you can continue to use our 3rd Party Hosting option!"
Or roughly something like that.
And I've taken to using tinypic myself.
It's a pretty good hosting service.

Thanks for the heads-up! And though I appreciate the offer of hosting, I'd feel like I was imposing. No need to trouble yourself. <3

Muchas gracias, everyone. These all look promising.
Fsck's sake.
Maybe we just need to pay Knighty more and have him offer native image uploads to patreon supporters or something.

Derp. Actually I was using mostly postimg.org -- which hasn't blocked fimfiction. It's just disappeared.
I signed up for a DeviantArt account, and upload the images to my sta.sh

Can we get a sitepost when a stable imagehost is found?
Or should we all just use Derpibooru?

Don't ask me, that's not my domain. :B

But your a site person that could poke other site people with the 'Pointy Stick of Doing Things'™

I will do this.
But I will do it in a way that literally anyone could do.
Just because. :V
Good news/bad news
If you replace postimg.org in your code with postimg.cc it should work. Leave the rest of the URL the same.
Now have to go through and do it for literally dozens of pictures
