Do you use either Imageshack or Photobucket?

Do you post images here? If you do, do you use either Imageshack or Photobucket? I'm looking for making some new functions here... need to know which is more used by the community.

Neither--I use my private webspace from my university when I need to, or the photo album function here.

Photobucket's bandwith regulations are absurd. I use either Imageshack or Oogletoogle.

really? I have yet to hit the bandwidth cap for anything I have used to post here and I pretty much only use that account for posting here. Do you know what the cap is?

I bandwidth'ed out my photobucket the two times I got featured on lifehacker. Since then any project writeups I make for my blog (or here) are tinypic. Imageshack annoys me.

I use photobucket because it was the first one I tried, and I didn't want to mess with
Yahoo for some reason.

Photobucket does have a lot of ads and weird distacting things that pop up.
I wonder if flickr is better in that regard.

flickr is much better in that regard.

I put all of my own photos and collections of found images onto flickr and everything else goes into the photobucket.

Is there any way to transfer the images I have on photobucket over to flickr?

I am not that computer savvy yet, I don't know if that was a dumb question.

Photobucket and Flickr.

Photobucket seems so easy for me and that's what I started using pretty much by random choice, plus a couple people recommending it was OK. But what bothered me is that they censored a few pics I put there that were FAR from porn or offensive; hell, I have no doubt they were artistic and in good taste and in no way appropriate for censorship. So I then registered at Flickr and test filed one of PB's censored images there with no issues. I have a lot of pics at PB but may start working more with Flickr due to this absurd censorship issue.

Crazy
 
I use Imageshack for forums but ai always use the "don't use this link" link because I think it cuts out and ad's they may try to insert around my pictures when others are viewing them.

this is true...photobucket has deleted quite a few of my images and it all seems to be very arbitrary. Meanwhile I have lots of smut in my flickr account.

the things that ended up attracting me to smugmug as opposed to flickr and other sites were the added privacy and ease of share. In flickr you can only share full size pics with other people who have pro accounts. And with smugmug you can set different passwords by gallery so you can really customize who gets to see what. Of course, it is a paid service, so there is that to consider.

I only use imageshack for hosting pictures in support of an auction listing. I've never put any of my personal pictures online in the two sites listed in the poll question. I have flickr, but I don't really post to it much. I'm kinda lazy... I guess I use the facebook photo uploader for my pics as well..

I've always used Photobucket, and being so ocd about keeping things I have multiple accounts for different things (art, avatars, photos, random pictures I need to host, etc) I never really got into imageshack, and I always found photobucket easier and reliable...
