    Photo Hosting

    I paid for 20 GB plus on Photobucket last October for around $30 a year. But for about the last 3 months I've been having issues with Photobucket - very slow or no response times, failed uploads, etc. Some weekends it just doesn't work. When it does work, it's wonderful. Although I've had an Amazon Prime membership for many years now, I just recently found out that the membership comes with unlimited photo hosting. I've tried it out a few times and it seems to work fine, very fast response times, quick uploads. I'm thinking about changing over to Amazon for photo hosting. Do any of you use Amazon for photo hosting? What photo hosting service do you use and are you happy with it?

    I use the tapatalk app to post all my photos on here now. Since I already have the pic on my phone it makes it soooooo simple and quick. and its free!

    yep, this! 99% of the picks I post I use tapatalk. (for now I have not updated to the new ver because they want access to the phone and contacts)

    I don't use tapatalk and didn't know you could upload pictures from there. Could DogRockets actually start to upload his own photos???

    Yep, I started using Tapatalk if I'm uploading photos. One step straight from the picture on my phone. I was having problems with the photobucket links always working, not to mention having to upload first, then copy/paste the IMG code.

    I will have to look into the Amazon Prime photo hosting though.

    Dang, I just started using photobucket as imgur was too cumbersome. I'll have to check out Amazon.
