Don't use photobucket. Use www.imghst.com, I do. |

Photobucket is a great service, and offers an image gallery style file manager, unlike imghst.com, which is the main reason I use photobucket. Thumbnails and directories really help if you have a few hundred images stored there. Imghst.com seems like a good service as well though. Depends on what you're looking for. Photobucket has been having some sporadic problems the last couple weeks though, which you can read about on their message board at their site. |

I agree. To be honest, I host most of my junk on a Paid-version (The full-featured Invision Power Board) in a password-protected part of the board. I've heard more stuff about people having problems with Photobucket, hence, I'm never will use it. B) |

I've used it for about 8 months an have a couple hundred images there, and it's worked perfectly except for about a day and a half 2 weeks ago. Any third party service could have problems and even lose your images, so the crucial ones like forum icons, buttons, etc. should probably be hosted on your forum itself, since they're not going to take up much of your upload space. |

How do you host them on the forum yourself? Upload them in a hidden forum, and hotlink? |

This is precisely what I do. In fact, I have even created a specific board to the end (I call it, "The Warehouse") B)
that's how I do it. |

Doing that now. Too bad you can't upload CSSes. |

Yep. I do the same thing. You don't really need to have it hidden, but there's no reason to have it out where everyone can see it and it's taking up space on the index page. |

Yeah, that's true. It's not like I'm hiding anything in there. If you can't find the image publicly-visisble elsewhere on the board, you can know that it's in "The Warehouse", either. |

Well, I'd rather have it hidden than have my members have to see the technical stuff of the forum. Like how I turn off page creation time ;). |
