    If on a forum you use a picture which by default needs a link, Its no use then moving or deleting it from your image collection.

    Sorry sir, since the photo was posted i have been asked to pay a charge so i have decided to take off all my photos across the net, this is the second time this has happened to me. If you didn't see the photo it was of a NG WW1 Baldwin running with a pantograph from my own collection.

    That's the way it is i'm afraid, i give out my photo collection for free for people to do what they want with, should i have to pay for that, i don't think so. I would be happy to pay for a photo but not to post one.

    That doesn't make sense. That means that you are implying imageshack benefits from hosting your photo, which they would only do by having advertising alongside it (not possible if you are linking direct to pic), or by having you pay for the web space.

    Photobucket has quite a large amount free image hosting if you are looking for an alternative :)

    I know a lot of people don't like Flickr, but they now offer unlimited webspace to new users for free. You can then put a link on here to a particular photo or a complete album or collection.

    That's actually pretty cool. I'm only really with photobucket as I've had them for years and too lazy to move my stuff over!
