poppy Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 What sites do people use for image hosting? I have been using TinyPic but now they make you enter a captcha everytime you upload a photo, which is quite annoying. I would also like one that allows you to crop and resize as well. At the moment I have to use one site for image hosting and another for resizing and it ends up quite time consuming (especially when you're always getting the size wrong like me ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janet Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 I've used Photobucket for years, but I don't know if it resizes or not as it's never occurred to me that it might! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylie Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 I have limited experience using Photobucket (Janet introduced me to it!) but I know that it resizes and I'm pretty sure it crops too. I often resize pics incorrectly too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 For resizing, if you use Windows XP, check out the PowerToys.. there's one in particular called 'Image Resizer' and it's a really simple way to resize photos on your computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beef Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 There are a few different ones you could use, you could try flickr or imageshack or if you do a lot of image hosting you could get your own cheap web space. then you could upload any size you want, organize how you want etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Univerze Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 I was gonna say I always use photobucket too, just tinypic for images that are random and I don't want to clutter my photobucket albums with them. For resizing, ehh I just use photoshop? Unless you just mean file size resizing and not pic dimensions resizing. Okay, you know how when you say a word too many times it can look funny? I have that with resizing now. Anyway, if it's for making the dimensions of a picture smaller, photoshop works too, and it's not that difficult to use, some of the finer editing stuff can be a , but image resizing is easy.

May I suggest if that is all someone needs photo editing software that is free they check out the fantastic open source GIMP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
