RE: Best 3 Image Hosting Sites for STEEM

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

Same here. The site is quietly throwing a JavaScript error that can be seen in a debugger. It seems we both missed an an announcement from 10 months ago that the service was getting too expensive to run, and uploading was turned off.

Sort:  

steemimg.com is still unable to upload images. This is really concerning for now there are so many Steeit related services, and I wonder how many of them will survice.
Also, https://ipfs.pics/ seems to be down ...
Even a child knows that hosting data takes an enourmous amount of processing and storaging ,, it is weird these claims that those services are expensive to run

The Steemit site allows you to directly host image content now, so there is no need for an external image hosting service as there once was.

Except for the profile image and cover image, which needs an external URL...

My profile avatar photo is hosted and uploaded first to a post on Steemit.com, on Steem.io. First, I upload a photo to a post. Second, I copy and paste the link to that photo in that post to my settings to my profile avatar loader.

Hi @rsarvas, I see you have mentioned me.
This is automatic response so that I may respond to your mention later.

Thanks for the comment and link @rsarvas! :)

I'm using https://imgsafe.org to host my profile picture. But contrary to what they say I found no way of deleting an image from their server. Which really sucks! :(

Fortunately you can upload images directly on posts now. I suppose it's hosted on servers owned by Steemit...

I just found some photos from my earlier posts gone.. those of which i directly uploaded onto the post thinking it gets stores onto their steemit servers.. Im still not sure what the best way is..
