  2. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    Been using photos.cx for a while now (thanks to toolz, mrfreeze, and others) with the sig and hotlinked pics. It's been working flawlessly and is extremely fast. It has a limit higher than 120K as seen with Imagesocket for pics showing up as a "big" pic and not a thumbnail. I just wanted to spread the word. It's a complete replacement for Imagesocket, in my opinion. I just opened the spam-alot pic thread and was looking through some of the pages, and it's unbearable and turtle slow because of Imagesocket. I figured I'd post this and see what you all think about putting it on the approved list. I have a feeling people will love it.

    I love that site. It's amusing. All upload sites should say "superman that ho."

    Once I had an issue back when I posted only gifs here, because it consumed all photos.cx's bandwidth, and he banned phun for a while, but seems it got sorted out.

    Even my sig I believe is hosted there also.

    it's the bomb! i've been using it for everything hotlinked and for my sig.

    btw this is not my host. i just like it. i have no ties or affiliation with it whatsoever.

    somebody just pm'ed me a question about putting a gif up and referred to it as "your host" so just wanted to say that. ;)

    I don't want to hear anyone complaining about imagevenue or imagesocket in the future!

    Those fucking hosts like uploadem,photos.cx, etc. just suck :mad:

    just because this happened, it doesn't mean imagesocket is good all of a sudden. it's still terrible. :(

    this really sucks too though!

    hopefully g.photos.cx will be up in the near future as the dude says (and our sigs and pics are obviously still working)

    BOTTOM LINE:
    PHUN IMAGE HOST PLEASE
