I dont need to host videos, but when I host my photos its usually PhotoBucket, but if they're actual artsy photos I put them on DeviantArt.

O. M. G... you forgot YouTube (www.youtube.com)! Unless, you meant YouTube by saying Google Video, then thats alright. Otherwise, I recommend YouTube.

I use my domain for almost all things I put online. An if anyone here has a large file i could put it up for a short while for you haha.

Sorry for the bump but no one seems to mention simply getting a gomain and a good amount of hosting. It's a good backup for a lot of strange if you ever feel the need.

for free hosting, photobucket. nothing else. It even makes thumbernails automatically with every picture and you even have your own space with folders and stuff.

I hate imageshack because it always loads so slowly for me and always has these stupid ads.

I hate photobucket because it always resizes screenshots, even if they're well under the size limit. But I use it anyway sometimes.

Photobucket = registration.

Registration = suck.

By your logic:

GamerNode = suck

And we all know that's not true. Therefore, your logic is flawed.

In terms of photo hosting, registration sucks.

I'd rather not have to log in to upload photos, thank you.
