Honestly i just use Flickr now. It's a little ponderous, but the gallery and tagging features are quite nice. Has huge space, and it's used pretty heavily by the photography community, which works in my favor.
It also provides hotlink URLs for you at the click of a button.
Quick example. I just went to my photostream, found a pic i wanted to share, clicked the arrow, selected "BBcode" copied that, and pasted here.

that's what I did on Imgur … except all I had to do was select a pic, and right click on it and then click on "copy image address"
Yeah i have no problem with imgur. I just prefer the "fluff" of Flickr and it meshes better with the photography hobby.
gotcha … though I've had just about as much trouble navigating Flickr as I did photobucket
Google just announced UNLIMITED storage for photos and video.
It's also really upped the search function (to an almost scarey level)
Thats because they are using your pictures to train their new AI
Seriously though, uh, photobucket works great. App is quick and easy and integrates nicely. To embed photos, use the "direct" link option and away you go.
And yes, you do need to use adblocker and whatnot with it. I once had an almost fullscreen naked chick popup on screen... At work
If someone could tell me how to view PB hosted pics on my phone that would be great. Buddies link me to pics hosted on PB all the time and i can never see them. Link seems to work, just takes me to a page with an ad or two and a space where a picture seems it should be. Maybe i'm doing it wrong.

Your friends are doing it wrong. They need to share the "direct" link with you. It will send you directly to the image file and that is it!
