Slow as frozen molasses.

Pain in the butt trying to upload to there first so I can then post photos here.

Fighting it for over an hour to get 15 photos uploaded.

The frustration is outweighing the reward.

Having to try and upload 2 or 3 at a time otherwise it freezes up.

Web site will show upload completed but then the photos aren't in the album OR the upload completes and then starts over again.

Just tried a few for testing... This batch took less than 30 seconds to upload, let's see if they're working:

Sometimes if the pictures are to large there will be a problem. I usually resize my pics and try to keep them at about 100KB they load fast.

Serk some great shots.

A few I just uploaded of the latest project that has hindered my ride time (very short upload and 4mb files)









I did have to re log in so they may have been working on it?

Is postimage the defacto replacement site for the now useless photobucket? I haven't bothered finding a new free site yet. Suggestions?

Serk suggested it to all of us. If they go belly up, it’s on him.  Smiley

It will go belly up. They will start charging, or just flat out disappear. The only question is when.

But today, today it's free, usually works, and so simple even a humble butcher can use it.

Postimage still working great for me. I only upload photos that I want to post on forums such as this one...still not completely comfortable with my personal info stored "in the cloud". I still keep all photos uploaded on Postimage along with all my other personal photos, etc. saved on multiple portable hard drives which I update every couple of years...cheap insurance.
Best site of this sort I've used to date...as a matter of fact if they started charging a nominal fee I would probably stay with them as long as it wasn't a ridiculous amount or they put a bunch of conditions on continuing to use it. If I get a good service, I don't mind paying a fair price for it...don't expect anything of value to be free.
