I don't host my images here as I post them on other forums as well. I host my images at one site and link to them from all the forums I post on.

Same^^^

I'd guess 99% host elsewhere and link to

Just seems strange so few people can be bothered to put them on here thats all.
Maybe its just me. :ambivalence:

Well, it's wasted time and space. If you can host in one place to share in multiple, why spend the time to host in multiple places to share in multiple places? Doesn't make sense.

I would bet TPF also appreciates members linking to photos rather than hosting them.

It only makes sense if you dont have images elsewhere...like me ! :eyebrows:

It's not that I can't be bothered. But why host an image in 10 different places when you can host it at one and link to it there?

Fair point but not everyone has images scattered all over the web.

480sparky · Jun 19, 2015

That's the point............ to NOT have images scattered all over.

errol · Jun 19, 2015

Well i definately fit into that category.

If you share your photos to other people too, it doesn't make sense to put it here. Plus, I think this place has a limit on the quantity. I have about 4,900 photos on photo site which I use as a central repository.

errol · Jun 19, 2015

I understand your point entirely.
But i still dont have any great number of my images anywhere else.

In my signature, I have a link to a gallery of all of the photos I have recently (2012-2015) directly posted (embedded) here on TPF, which leads to my on-line casual photo storage site at pBase, where there are about 10,000 images available to browse or steal.
