And sometimes she didn't have saline handy, so she would put the lenses in her mouth to wet them and put 'em back in her eyes... Ewwwww.

Yeah man, that's how you gotta do it with the hard lenses. I switched to soft 'cause I hated being so extra careful. And it just wasn't working for me 'cause I was playing soccer and baseball at the time.

anyone recommend free webhosting of pictures with the following

*allows to organise your photos into albums
*allows hotlinking :sweat:
*more than 50mb webspace :sweat:
*unlimited bandwidth :sweat:

:say_thanx:


I used http://www.imagestation.com recently and just received
an email they don't allow hotlinking :grumble:

Qilver mentioned imageshack.us a while back:

Unlimited space, unlimited bandwidth, and hot linking...


The downside? You can only upload one pic at a time. :bleh:


For a paltry $10USD/year, Uploadit.org has all the above features, and you can upload five pics at a time... Nearly 4000 pics and two years later, they've been great. Haven't had a hiccups in months... :thumbsup:

I do use iimageshack.us but is quite messy if you hundreds of pics
and want to organise them into albums for easy reference when needed :sweat:

Does Uploadit.org have album feature??

They have folders for organizing pics, but it only shows the filenames... They do have a gallery feature for private/public viewing and that slideshow image feature that I was using for my avatar a while back...

They do offer a free host, but the amount of space is limited. Maybe worth a trial, ne?

Imageshack

*allows to organise your photos into albums- not as good as photobucket service. but u can put into galleries. The service not very good though.
*allows hotlinking :sweat: *CHECK*
*more than 50mb webspace :sweat: *CHECK* Unlimited to be exact!
*unlimited bandwidth :sweat: *CHECK* Unlimited!

but the letdown, for free service, one pic per upload.

EDIT: I was asking for all 4 pointers in my first post :sweat:

Guess there's no such free service :doh:

Hmmm if you're looking for a FREE good webhost..
I think T35.com would be fine.

www.T35.com

They have unlimited diskspace and unlimited bandwidth.
They do not place banners to your site.. which is a great thing.
But they have popups (no porn and such).



Padme :victory:

thx, i'll check it out...

Thanks Padme. :woot:
Too bad they have 250kb file size limit, but that's fine with me.

Yeah they have some limits.. but it's fine like you said.
I host my test site on T35, and I am happy with the performance.
Also, the great thing about it.. you can use FTP for Free. :woot:

Nice. :) Thanks Padme, think I'll check that site out.

U should all look at this one for storing pics online:

Snapfish.com ... is by Hp

excellent for storing, organizing, editing, printing pictures online.
it is unlimited space and free
extremely easy to use and can upload as much as u want in a go.
i uploaded 100+ pics at the same time. now it has like 400 or so in it
it lets u choose the folder to upload and if u want even select pics in it directly online and then whoooosh upload.
and must say a very fast upload, though i do have a broadband so....

:thumbsup:

Anybody know a cheap/free sig hosting website. Preferrably with sig rotators? As you can see below, mine isn't working. Grrr!

Stargirl, we've got an image host thread here: http://jdorama.com/viewtopic.2619.htm :)

I'm using Photobucket and they give you 1GB of space.... Not sure if they have a rotating image feature, though... You can just make an animated gif like mine, ne?

I'll merge this thread with the above thread... Gomen.

Sorry about that too. I seached for the term "sig host" and came up with nothing so I thought it's a new topic.

For those who have their own webhosts, I found a great script for rotating sigs. Just PM me if you want my help.

Did uploadit vanish? If so, I think I'm screwed. Didn't back up ANY of the files I uploaded...... :sweat:

I would say yes, because it's been down for a few days. I know bmw used to have files there. Not fully reliable. =T

Sorry to hear about your loss.
