    Likely you have to become a premium member

    ive used https://imgur.com/ in the past dont remember the watermark being there.
    XLBGE, LBGE, Charbroil Gas Grill, Weber Q2000, Old Weber Kettle, Rectec RT-B380, Yeti 65, Yeti Hopper 20, RTIC 20, RTIC 20 Soft Side - Too many drinkware vessels to mention.

    Just Vote- What if you could choose "none of the above" on an election ballot? Millions of Americans do just that, in effect, by not voting.  The result in 2016: "Nobody" won more counties, more states, and more electoral votes than either candidate for president.

    Xfire is correct Ron.  A bit over a year ago the Botophucket stopped being free.

    Flickr is still free...

    If you're using PB to post pix here, you don't need to. Just drag and drop from your PC. You do need a host to post to the old forum. @Florida Grillin Girl uses one other than PB, but I forget which one, maybe imgur?

    I've never used PB, but if I had been subjected to the extortion they tried to pull a couple of years ago, I sure would have dropped them fast!

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    I understand that, but I pay albeit at a lower rate due to having been grandfathered since I had been a paid up member from years ago when PB had such a program. I just paid for another year back in January. Guess I better just call PB and ask.

    Thanks Michael...it's just that many of my favorite pictures were on an old HP that has been repurposed as fence wire somewhere and PB was/is my only source for recovery.

    Using Photobucket is almost bad as having an AOL.com email addy. Sadly, imgur is start to suck also...

    They still have hundreds of my photos hostage including years of photos from my construction projects before I retired. I have nothing but contempt for the company.

    Check with @fishlessman. ISTR he had issues trying to get his pics back from PB purgatory. Dunno if he ever resolved or not.

    Ron - is the watermarked photo cached in your browser?  Maybe try clearing cookies and cache and see if that works?

    I use postimages.org

    It's free and you don't even need to set up an account unless you want to store your pics there.
