Free Image Hosting for your Blog

Generally website owners and bloggers use the free image hosting websites for uploading their images. The Process of Uploading any image is very simple. You have just to visit the image hosting website, select and browse to find an image from you pc or labtop that you want to upload and click upload. Then automatically image will be uploaded and the hosting website will generate a linking image URL which you can use anywhere to post that image.That url can be used in blogs, forums, message boards, emails, websites etc.I also use such image hosting websites for uploading my images.

    Can these smaller free image hosting providers withstand DUGG affect or my images will be removed in a flash? Have you tested it? Thanks for the review, thought!

    I use http://pixpin.com/ which allows image of 7.5MB, hot-linking with unlimited bandwidth, doesn’t require registration, nudity ok but has to be private (not shown in public gallery.

    One unique feature is resizing. You can specify the size to fit in forums.
