    Is there another site out there that explicitly allows hotlinking images like Imageshack?

    I want to build an online album but I don't have enough bandwidth, so I will be using Imageshack to host all my pictures. However, I'm not sure how reliable imageshack is. Has anyone experienced extended down time from them?

    Furthermore, I'm not sure how long imageshack can stay in business. I mean, is there business model really viable? How many people here have clicked on their google ads?

    Don't get me wrong, I love Imageshack and I thank god they exist. But I would feel better if I can find a few free alternatives. ;)

    I started using photobucuket.com recently. Can't really comment on their uptime, don't use it enough to, but it's never been down when I've gone to it.

    sounds like someone needs to purchase some webhosting.

    Yeah, exactly! :D

    For $35 per month, I get more space and bandwidth than I could ever use and I take TONS of pics now with my new digital that end up online.
