Since the bomb of the new Photobucket ToS I have yet to find a suitable photo hosting platform for my build logs and general posting shenanigans here on the forums.  I tried Google Drive and Photos but they don't seem to work with hosting images or I can't figure out how to do it properly.  Any advice would be great.

    Since this website's image attachment system is so randomly broken, I cannot recommend using it.
     
    I use Techpowerup's Free Image Hosting.  No ads.  No spam.  Few restrictions.  No account creation required.  Easy to use.  Just works.

    Imgur ATM, I had photobucket for years and the last 12months PB went to crap and greedy! I wish Dropbox and or iCloud could do image hosting better, but who knows. I'd gladly pay a fair annual fee for such a service.

    EVGA needs to host pics on the site. No it isn't hard and No it isn't expensive. A lot of sites are doing it as it sucks big time when a useful image gets borked because of useless image hosting sites. Host the images on the forum.

    You can upload a picture here at EVGA in most threads using the full reply and attach an image.
    But in the for sale area you can't, where you need to ad an image the most!
    So how about letting us upload an image in the for sale section. That would make it so much easier.
    Make it so after the sale, the thread or at least the image is deleted to save space.

    Yeah, except EVGA's image attachment system on this forum is usually broken/doesn't work for at least half of the viewers.  I don't know why.  Some times the author can see the image but it's broken for everyone else, or sometimes it is broken for everyone, or sometimes it is broken for just a small segment of people.  It is completely unreliable and requires attaching, deleting, attaching, deleting, attaching as a different file name, messing around, oh now it finally works?!

    Im surprised the evga forums even works most days, let alone being able to host fourm images, but yet they spent time and labor pushed this Elite Member crap!!
