What website do you guys use to host your pictures that allow over 1000 pixels? I see a lot of you are able to post large full screen pictures, but the website that hosts my albums won't allow me over 1000 pixels horizontal per picture.
I have lots of pictures from my visit to the Pima A&S museum that I'd like to post up, but when I post a 1000 pixel picture here u can barely see them.
We had a great day there, I'd like to share the pics I have, saw their B-29s, F4U-4, Ki-43, Hurricane, FM2 and P-51D among many others...Unfortunately they said their P-38 on loan was lost in a fire in France during a D-Day anniversary.
TIA
:salute

I have an old website I used to use a lot and still pay a few bucks a months for the server space. I have all my old photos there so it's worth the expenditure.

I use Flickr and it gives you a range of popular sizes to chose from up to and including whatever the native resolution of the picture is. On the downside it can be a bit tedious pulling URLs for a bunch of images.

Photobucket has an option for keeping original resolution, though it can be iffy on some sites (Seems to work here) since the link is '.jpg~original'. Though they do still compress which if you're picky could hurt the quality.
Personally if I care about keeping it in the original size/quality I'll just upload to my website on Enjin.com and call it a day, though PB normally works well enough. :)
The PB option is under 'Account Name'>User Settings>Albums>Upload options, and it will have "Note: with 1024x768, you can choose to link out the original size".

Smugmug.com allows large format images to be posted.
I have an account with them for the lineman rodeos in which I participate.... lineman.smugmug.com (http://lineman.smugmug.com)
I have a "power" level account that runs $8 a month, there is one lower that goes for $5 a month.

PB can kiss my rosy red... they randomly tag pics as TOS violations

Strange, even after likely thousands of uploads I've never had any ToS flags. Guess they don't like rosy red... :P

fair point but nothing they flagged was even close.. now on MY site.. well :devil

You can try flickr and/or photobucket for free. I now host my photos using zenfolio but it is a pay site.
-
Preferably a free site, I'll take a look, thanks gents.

Just get a free dropbox account. Any file you put in the public folder you can share by right clicking on it and "copy public link".
