Real quick photo host recommendation?

Flickr or Photobucket? Or something else?

I'm looking for something free which can host some pictures for me as I don't like the LJ Scrapbook very much at all.

I don't want ads all over my picspam, obviously, but I don't know if that's an issue.

Someone give me a rec?

Thanks!

I'd say Flickr if you want people to go look at your pictures somewhere else, and photobucket for pictures in LJ posts.

Personally I love photobucket. It's got a bulk uploader and I have loads of pictures loaded at my two accounts.

Are you doing a picspam today? :)

I am now uploading all the pictures that [livejournal.com profile] llamabitchyo sent me to my shiny new Photobucket account. Man, she sent me a lot.

I am supposed to be doing picpsam on [livejournal.com profile] popsoundboard. I have no idea what pictures I'm going to use yet. But my theme is Lance!

another yay to photobucket. it's really easy to use, and i've had an account with them for years with no trouble.

And now a Photobucket account is mine!

I've never tried flickr, I've used photobucket for years

Thanks! I now have a Photobucket, seeing as everyone said the same thing.

I've never tried Flickr, but Photobucket is pretty decent. A damn sight easier to use than LJ's pesky Scrapbook.

The Scrapbook is horrible. I used it once for a picspam. Dude, never again.

I have Photobucket now! :D

Flickr has a limit of 200 photos after a month or so. Photobucket is unlimited, and has photo editing options. Go with that.
