Good website to host e90 pictures on?

Any reccomendations for a good, stable, server/website that I could get some space to host my e90 pictures (hopefully for free)? I used theimagehosting.com for a while, and I liked it. It was free, I could log in, manage my pictures, upload them, etc, no problems. Their new code doesn't allow to directly place pictures onto e90post, you have to put in thumbnails that link to their website. Imageshack.us is okay here and there but I'd like something better... Any suggestions?

Thanks ahead of time..

PS. Also - used to have my own server/space, don't have it anymore. It'd be nice just to be able to drag and drop pictures through windows or ftp, then just make the html link here on e90post..

We actually encourage members to attach their images directly to their posts as this preserves the images on our servers so that in the future members won't see red X's (if you happen to remove the images from your hosting account). Our attachment limitations are very generous so you generally shouldn't have problems with resolution or filesize.

I was about to post this. I HATE all those third party image hosts. It's rare that forums allow you to attach pictures to your posts, people should take advantage.

Maybe this should be stickied?

Hmm. Sounds good to me.. the limits are very generous.. Guess I never clicked down there before.. Quick question on this though, do all of the attached pictures have to be at the end of the post, or is there a way to type text and insert attached pictures between the text. Sometimes it's nice to have

title
pic

title
pic

title
pic

etc...

Thanks,
Josh
