I am trying to upgrade the existing gallery to where images can reliably be backed up. Crashes are not unheard of on these sites and happen at times. Unbacked up content is lost. I am not sure when this will happen as a systems programmer is volunteering his time to do this for us.
In the meantime, here are some ideas. I am willing to pay for a site that hosts images for users of the forum. Something like smugmug.com or pbase.com? I am trying to find something that can be setup with multiple password protected users with a single, reasonably priced account.
There are also free sites out there that will allow you to link photos to forums such as:
http://www.fotolog.net/
http://www.fotopages.com/
I would like to spare you the need to register for your own photo galleries if possible. I am working on it and hope to have an alternative up in the next day or so.
The way you link photos into your posts on forums is explained at:
