Well this site seems basic and easy enough. ImgBB

I was able to upload this image without an account.

Remember her?

If I make an account then I can store the images. No blather about sharing one's image or "tweeting" it or something equally dumb. No offense to folks who like all that social media stuff but I am old (old-ish) and grumpy and think it's all really stupid. Now get off my lawn you damn kids.

More about the site. They only accept images that are less than 16mb in JPG PNG BMP GIF formats. No editing tools except resizing. Fine with me. photobucket had a few nice features to edit with but I normally "embellish" my pictures before uploading anyway.

Their terms of service seem straight forward enough.

Terms of use of imgbb.com service

What cannot be uploaded to imgbb.com servers:

Copyrighted images if you don't own copyright for it
Violence, racial intolerance, or advocate against any individual, group, or organization
Any other images that might be considered illegal in USA or EU countries

If you are not sure whether image you want to upload is allowed then do not upload that image. All uploaded images are checked by staff and images that violate terms will be removed without warning and uploader of such images might be banned from website.

The privacy policy seems equally uncomplicated. They don't give out information about a user, they only use information for moderation purposes.

The moderation part seemed weird to me. I mean I understand it, they don't want any potentially illegal or offensive content. But they have a team of moderators who check out pictures uploaded to the site?

Checking each and every image would take a significant amount of time, dont'cha think? They probably aren't that big of a company or have all that many accounts if they are willing to do that (I am assuming here).

*shrug*
I don't know if business growth will make them like the current photobucket. They started out smallish as well. Oh well.
