    I really dislike third party image hosting for a simple reason: sooner than later the links will be broken, whether by file reorganization or by closing the account. FPN is a prime example of this: there are literally hundreds of broken links and pictures that have disappeared over the years. There are few things more frustrating than reading a pen or ink review with no pictures because they have disappeared.

    As far as storage and image resizing I do the old fashioned way: images are stored in my computer's hard drive (and backup) and resizing is done with a simple image app.

    For this reason the images I have contributed to this forum are hosted right here on FPG. And if FPG should someday disappear? Well, then it really won't matter will it?
