  • Photobucket isn’t free. Postimage.org doesn’t exist anymore, it’s now postimg.cc and it’s full of adware.

  • Saurabh

    Pichub.site is one of the best for me. It’s free image hosting website Service that offers unlimited bandwidth picture hosting.

  • MorrShelton

    You may try https://imgcave.com all image types are accepted. It generates numerous codes to easily link to images.

  • I really don’t know the current state of things, but I lost hundreds of photos free hosted in imageshack.us when they unadvisedly decided to change their policies. Years of work lost forever, no reliability there

  • ernie g

    As of November 2015, Imageshack is no longer free. Photobucket has become so obnoxiously inundated with ads that it no longer functions unless you pay for their premium service as well. In other words, Photobucket is no longer free either….

  • Alexander Mathew

    Found a new free Picture hosting website based on Google material design, looks & works perfect for me. PixSheep offering Unlimited space, SSL, Can upload pictures without registration etc https://pixsheep.com

  • swadesh Parasher

    I am currently using https://ImgPile.com simply because it offers better interface and supports SSL by default. 🙂
    Also, I would like to report a typo error – It should be Flickr.com, instead of Flicker.com at #6.
    Cheers for the great list.

  • Bilal Ahmad

    The post is now updated with the suggested photo sharing websites.

  • Anand @ Linux hosting

    I like Imageshacks and using since many years its really very easy to use.

  • I use pikture.net

  • Nisha Shah

    If you have time, please consider adding another free image hosting site. i.e PhotoDekho

  • As Rajesh said about Photobuckets. I would also recommend you to join Photobuckts. Which is also free

  • Narendran.M

    Thanks for the suggestion mate.. I’ll try imageshack.us.

  • Rajesh@ Thanks for adding these 2. The reason why i did not mentioned these and more image hosting websites is to start a discussion. Like you add these 2, similarly other commentators will add more and so on.
    Narendran@ You can try imageshack.us that is great.

  • Narendran.M

    nice share dude..
    I haven’t tried any of the above mentioned sites.. but now i’m gonna take a chance & btw my rly for the hosting service will be self hosted images. I agree it will save the disk space, one should also consider the loading speed of the images.

    A good compilation mate!! 🙂
