Which online photo site offers the best image quality/least compression? I am using Picasa right now but I've noticed it literally crushes my photos, the quality looks terrible and I'm too lazy to view image sources on all the other posts. Or are you guys using your Gold memberships for BF storage?
 
I use Flickr. The photos can't get too big, but 1000x800 is usually good enough for me. I have a post somewhere in the chat thread I think about it.
 
I put pictures in a photo album on my profile and link to that.

+1 for Flickr. I used to use it all the time, now I use a mix of Zenfolio and Flickr, but Flickr wins for hosting.

I use imgur. I asked almost the exact same question on this forum and this was recommended by Capt. Airyca I think. It's the easiest thing in the world to use.
 
+1 for flickr. Best image hosting I've ever used.

Edit: best thing about flickr: you can use either your yahoo, facebook or google account as your flickr account. So most of us already have a flickr acc, we just don't know it! :D

:D yep! Imgur is awesome, you can choose to have an account or just use it when you want, and flickr is ok as well, I've used both.
 
smugmug.com teh awesome. great quality. it's where i host my pictures.
 
I chose flickr, it was the easiest to setup and provided some pretty decent resolution.
 
imageshack is pretty decent. the GUI could be a little better, more diverse. Maybe it's just me.
 
Get a dropbox account. You can drop your files into a folder and it'll upload them automatically with no compression. You can also drag them to the icon on your tool bar.You can right click on the files in the folder on your computer and copy the link there. You don't have to upload individual files; all you do is drag to the folder. It'll sync the folder with your dropbox account.

Plus you get 2 gigs of free space and they stay on your account forever.

The other benefit is you can sync files between multiple computers. All you have to do is set up dropbox for each computer and the dropbox folder will sync all of them together.
