Free photo hosting websites suitable for Pprune use

[Centaurus]

I wish to add a photo as part of a Pprune contribution. I used photobucket free for many years but now it costs money and is tricky to use for a relatively computer illiterate like me. Would appreciate other recommended free photo hosting websites that are not complicated to use.

You can upload pictures directly to PPRuNe and link to them from you post:

PPRuNe Forums - FAQ: User Profile Features (http://www.pprune.org/faq.php?faq=vb3_user_profile#faq_vb3_albums)

I can make no comment on the complexity of use.

Also starting to find/learn/use alternatives to Photobucket linking.. The above post's FAQ seems to address photos being uploaded to albums. Can a photo be uploaded more directly into a thread post? Or is the move from album to thread obvious and simple when doing it?
(tip: found some useful steps in the basic Windows 7 software--copy a photo and then use PAINT to crop and then resize)

I use imgur.com.

imgur works.

Also, shortly we will be autoattaching all 3rd party photos to PPRuNe, to avoid this issue moving forward. We are also going to try to recover a number of the Photobucket images posted here over the years.
