This just in: Apparently Imageshack is A shit Image Host
69 replies, posted
If you want to host some funny, serious, or just plain random images, do not go directly to imageshack. Imageshack is a "shit host" as said by most Facepunchers. Most FP'ers recommend using other image hosts, like:
Photobucket
Imagekk
Filesmelt
And others.
Imageshack is shit because there are longer loading times, a bad user-interface, not smooth, and ugly. And there are watermarks. And black bars.
Image hosts like those have a more user-friendly image submitting process, without ugly watermarks. And they aren't hacked as of now, like Imageshack.
So, if you want a good user-experience while getting the most out of your images, do NOT use Imageshack. It sucks. That's 50% of Facepunch's opinion.
I hope you have a good time hosting your images on (insert not Imageshack image host link here)!

You still haven't mentioned why it sucks other than "it's shit".

They put watermark-like things on your images.
"DO FISH GET THIRSTY? TAKE THE DUMB TEST" and stupid shit like that.
"It's shit" is a pretty good reason, sometimes.

I like Imageshack, too bad it was hacked: [QUOTE=Hysteria100;15972304]Whilst trying to look back at one of my previous posts on this page, I noticed a slight change in my linked images! Bit more info here: (some are back up. post 213 is still hacked. Reminds me a lot of V for Vendetta, when V makes his broadcast show on every TV and billboard in the country! Except less awesome.)

Yea, Photobucket is a great Imagehost. I've never needed anything else.

It's incredibly slow and it puts ads below your images.
If you get ads under your images when hosting things on imageshack it's because you didn't use the direct link.
I use imageshack. I don't really give a shit about trivial things like that.
That's why you don't use their stupid links. Learn how to post direct to the image, like you should. No stupid advertisements.
I use it because it's quick and I don't need to load my entire album or wait for a log in.
Tinypic also works.
I use majhost. It's remnant of my Bionicle days (although they're still :razz:) and it's just plain awesome.
Imageshack is great
It's fast and simple for when you just need to upload images to show to a few people or for a forum
I have never seen these advertisements you mention either. All you need to do is copy the direct link to the image.
fuck photobucket tinypic owns

This just in: this is a parody thread of everyone saying in threads about imageshack being hacked that "photobucket is better". Or something.
I said that in a thread and Many disagreed.
I use Photobucket for the msot part, and don't really have any trouble.

How is this a parody thread in anyway? That makes no sense.
good for you

I told everyone that said things like "I use photobucket" and "Imageshack is shit" that nobody cares and i got dumb ratings. Just go to the imageshack post in in the news subforum and look at my posts.
I use Imageshack and am perfectly happy with it. I don't have these so called "watermarks" on my images either.

This just in. You're late.
HA HA HA HA, Photobucket fucking sucks ass. They resize your images and whenever you click a link to an image, it always fucking redirects you to their site and never the actual image.
I stopped using it since Filesmelt was started, it's bare bones and effective.
Fucking read the fucking edit in the fucking op

Why is it shit again?
You just fucking suck at using imageshack.
you get those ads when you direct copy their embed code, which you probably use to embed images on your myspace profile.
before you say its shit, actually learn how to embed correctly. if you don't know how to embed off the bat or are too lazy to delete the line of code that puts that ad under your image, you shouldn't be embedding pictures in the first place.

i have one of those rugs for my mousepad
I've used imageshack for a long while now. It sucks that half the shit I had on there is now this. Most of the crap I don't have on my computer anymore either.
