    What img upload sites do you guys use?

    Unless there�s a way to stop imgur from getting all that gross compression mess outside of the app I�ve gotta find a new one. Looking for something free where I can host drawings to embed on neo but all my old options are dead. Photobucket got all weird, the pro photo ones are expensive, r/imguralternatives is inactive and the sticky is like 4yo (and the one that still appeared connected, cubeupload, won�t send me the verification email), even tumblr changed how it hosts images so I can�t use that anymore. Thoughts?

    What kind of compression are you experiencing? I've been using imgur for years now and haven't experienced it. You could try a private dA account.

    Why, yes. The world does revolve around me.

    Have you considered Deviantart maybe? It was made to connect people through art.
    It is possible to upload mostly everything there and, as far as I know, there is no limit to how many images can be uploaded, the size or dimensions of the images.
    I believe there is also a way to hide your content so it isn't found by the search mechanism the website features while still being able to embed on other websites.

    Basically jpg noise like it’s the olden days. I don’t wanna post the actual art of my pets I’m fighting with rn, so most recent ck-safe example is (you need an account to see links). They look fine in the app, but as soon as they’re embedded anywhere it’s all noisy. Same thing is happening with drawings in pet descriptions.

    Lol dA does seem appropriate actually. For some reason my memory of that involves embedding issues, but I think I might be thinking of their right click protection

    Edit: thanks for the input guys! Gonna make a dA and see how that works out

    I'm wondering if the issue is more with your device and the original quality of the photo, because I use imgur and embed and I don't encounter this issue.

    Enjoy my cat's gaping maw, followed by some random Neoboard thing I can't remember why I have. Edit: RIGHT, they were saying when some GBCs were coming. Old news.

    Are all your uploads from mobile? Mine are from a PC, so that might be the difference?

    Hmm maybe it’s that - it is all mobile, my main device is an iPad Pro & it’s where I both screenshot things and do drawings. But the files seem big and crystal clear both pre-upload and in the imgur app. I tried deviantart and while the noise problem isn’t nearly as bad there it’s still not 0. Also the version of the image that’s resized for my profile rather than opened in full is extremely noisy, which is not the case for other profiles I’ve looked at.

    Uuuuugh this may be another nail in the “I have to buy a laptop” coffin

    Maybe you could transfer your files onto PC and then upload from there.
    I've tried (you need an account to see links) before as well and it was alright for me. You could give that a shot.

    Do you have discord ? If yes make a private server and use it to upload your images. It works pretty fine for me and it's instanly upload service too so it's really great
