    I am really liking imgmax. Does it work with BID and how long do they retain the images?

    Are you sure? I'm trying to test this. On my PC I found this pic. It looks small, but I can click a magnifying glass to make it big.

    http://www.imgmax.com/images/2016/08/26/VR4CP.jpg

    Can you provide an example? Are you uploading the pics? If so are you copying and pasting the links for "BB Code"?

    I see a lot of people when commenting on one pic out of a set, try to take a direct link (which looks like this http://sharenxs.com/gallery/5981089f8b33c/bab4qv0thdju_5981089fa67b9/original) and insert that in image tags. That almost never works.

    But if you click that link, you can scroll down under the picture and copy and paste the BB Code I'm talking about. That will show the thumb like below. And if I'm misunderstanding the problem, my apologies! :)

    [​IMG]

    I just tested and BID worked fine for me in a Teri Hatcher thread that had a good set (wanted to test with more then a single pic). My url had a post number in it from searching, I had to take that part out of the url and then BID worked fine.

    example:
    Didn't work in BID: http://forum.phun.org/index.php?thr...-sydney-17-june-2017-mq.1941285/#post-9628090
    Worked in BID: http://forum.phun.org/index.php?thr...aming-expo-in-sydney-17-june-2017-mq.1941285/

    They say they keep the pics forever, but there is some type of timed option you can select. Might be best to make an account if you haven't to be sure it's not selected.

    I like the Random button there. :cool:

    i'm not uploading, i'm just browsing and it looks something like this:

    [​IMG] [​IMG]

    and it seems to be a Firefox (or some extension) thing because i don't have the problem in Chrome. but it used to work some weeks ago, so i wonder what happened.

    I think you're right about it being something within the browser. Hopefully it's something that won't happen a lot, I'm a chrome girl myself so I'm not too Firefox savvy. :)

    Look at this one

    [​IMG]

    Right click on it after you make it bigger and look at the image info. The dimensions look like this 5,760px × 3,840px (scaled to 1,519px × 1,013px) It's a much bigger pic but it's been scaled down. That's why it only opens up as big as my computer screen. When I first click on an imgmax thumbnail it will say something like "load full resolution 2.3MB" but that's not really true if it's scaled down like this.

    Here is one that opens up to it's full size

    http://imgbox.com/pMyLBQdJ

    It's image info looks like this 3,456px × 5,184px. You have to pan back and forth to look at the whole thing. That's what the imgmax and some imagebam pics aren't doing.

    My Firefox has noscript extension, with it set to temporarily allow imgmax.com. When I left-click on your image above, it opens in a tab and resizes to fit the screen. Left-clicking on that it zooms in. Right-clicking on that image and choosing View image, it again resizes to fit the screen. Left-clicking on it at that point magnifies and displays the full image at full resolution (5760x3840). I know it's weird, and may be a function of the way noscript acts, but that's what I have to do with imgmax to view the whole image at max resolution.

    I went and got a noscript extension for Firefox and I can also see the full image after doing what you described. That is very strange and it's a lot to have to go through just to see full resolution images.

    But then I went back and looked at images on imgbox and it had blocked the smaller image along with the on screen graphics so I had to allow imgbox. It seems to be an imgmax problem only but the fix then causes problems elsewhere. I did look at Phun on Chrome and the imgmax problem was there also but I'm not going to worry about that.

    Since we can't post on the approved image host thread, thought I'd mention ShareNXS has a notice on top it's site saying they will SHUTDOWN Jan 31, 2018!!!

    Seems so, I'm doubtful pimp will try to convert. Especially when their differences in file size maximums are so different.

    They likely just bought the domain name so they could redirect the traffic. I don't really know though.
