Hi all, got a tiny problem I need help with. i'm currently using Boomspeed.com for my pic server, but my free storage limit is just about used up; In lieu of having to delete files from it as most of them are posted on the web here and there, what other free hosting servers are there that I can store images with?

Thanks in advance!

armorama.com @ MSN is available - it's a link on the home page - top right of the screen.

I'm in trouble with MSN : I reached my size limit. I've been deleting some pics to make room for new ones, but I'm back at the limit again now. Since those pics are all on Armorama, I don't want to delete them. What now ?

Webshots allows you to store 240 pics, no size restrictions, no view limits, for free. They give you a program that manages your onine pics and everything. If you upgrade to their pay account, you can pay as little as $1.89 a month and store 3,000 images with no size restrictions or view limits. They even offer statistics for your albums. I have three folders that have been viewed 3,500 times in the last month or so. You can click my link below to see my folders. I do not pay for my account.

Webshots doesn't allow hotlinking however, and I'm pretty sure that's what GF is looking for.

Geocities doesn't allow hotlinking of images, but they do allow you to hotlink to *.txt files. You get 11 (I think) megs for free. Just upload your image files with the extension of .txt instead of .jpg and let the browser figure out that it is an image file instead of a text file. It works. Geocities had some reliability issues in the past, but I haven't had a problem with them recently.
