I have used imgur as a backup for supload. Just use supload as host not looking at getting paid.

Hmm well thats a good idea though.
But why would someone edit or remove it after it has been used once and earned for him?

@acidyo, @otemiz, if you people correctley, are you saying that I should post my images to #imgur then copy the link and embed it on my steemit article while making a post?

I've been using flickr with my posts,  1 TB of free storage and allows for people to click and see full size image. May be useful.

Another reason why people must  be careful about  what they leave in the blockchain.  But I find it difficult to imagine what anyone could put in a post that could get them fired.

The original way out of the situation. You have thought up this wonderful. Good luck to you and good.

Excellent info. I am also aware that what's posted on the blockchain stays on the blockchain, so I tend to use pictures I'm comfortable with long-term and I make sure to include the source.

wao... knowledge is never a waste, we live to learn everyday of our lives, thanks for this great piece that you shared @acidyo, its been of great help to me as am new on steemit, i follow your posts regularly and they have been of help to me which has improved my knowledge on steemit. Thank you once again

Been using Imgur for years now, definitely the best image hosting site out there. Glad you're making a post letting people know about it outside of reddit users, as most people have no damn idea what I'm talking about when I've told them about it. 

I wish the Imgur community was still like how it used to be a few years ago, I used to be really active on there but it started getting flooded with thristy ass dudes and just really crappy people in general and the content shared on there has become very mediocre or flat out sad to see. I've actually got a post on there that has over 1 million views and a few others that have around 500k views. Lost my mind when I saw the views taking off like that back then.

@acidyo thank you so much. Like you knew i needed this, I have asked my self what if i mistakingly upload a wrong image, and here you brought the solution. God bless you big. You just did well.

Good to know @acidyo ! Always dropping that knowledge on us

great, I'm very interested in such information as a new user, I rarely and rarely see similar and useful information that would help in the process of acquaintance and use on the project ... Thank you, you make life easier for me and many other users. Very competent post

I recently was wondering about this myself and I looked around on the internet. Thanks for sharing! Very helpful to learn this stuff

Imgur is the best image hosting site around, another image hosting site I like to use is Imgsafe(very simple interface, you don't even need to sign up).

I don't understand : "they had uploaded an image on a post that was beyond the payout" ? What does it mean?

really nice

vote me@acidyo

good info

This is really good information to know thank God I haven't uploaded anything I regret!

This makes seem like a silly notion, but oughtn't steem ideally handle this (at least for small images)? Post image data in the blockchain, and just have the client/platform read it.

Edit: That way you can edit it like a post, and it only gets removed if the witnesses remove it, as I understand it.

i do wish they put more applications like

the availability to put
a

Backgroud for the entire post
,
some kind of way to color text
and a built in small featured image size allocator
so the size of the image can be changed.

good advice :)

@acidyo Respect man, I knew about imgur and I've been using the website occasionally but I could definitely do with your info about removing images from older posts.

Upvoted and Resteemed , mate!

Highest Regards 
@lordneroo

I didn't know that was possible to delete pictures on older posts. I will definitely try this.

Thanks @acidyo for this wonderful information as regard another alternative to image uploading.
 Imgur will really help big time.

Thats a good idea though. keep it up my friend you have my vote & resteem

Thanks for the information. I'm bookmarking this post. I've had a few older posts where I wished I could remove my images but can't. I never thought to look up ways around this. Really great post and super useful.

really good information to know thank

Am  going to try this now... Thanks for the info.. 
Upvoted... Hi guys please help me grow.... Follow back n like my post..

thank you @acidyo for this wonderful post. Many steemians are getting this problem. It is better to recheck your post before pressing the submit button.

A simple feature to allow pictures deletion by the same user that uploaded to "steemitimages", would be enough until something better comes. The old post images could say "image deleted by user".
