Those are some pretty terrible prices. You can share images (or anything else) publicly from Dropbox/Box/GDrive/OneDrive for a lot cheaper. Or just cut out the middleman and set up a S3 bucket for a few cents.

I'm on my second year subscription, even if the owner's a total cunt who actually responds to justifiable emails.

Owner sounds a bit full of themselves for sure. Any horror stories?

Nope.

It's a few bucks a year silly image hosting account. I mean, I'm a grumpy, cheap fucker, but even I would struggle to find fault.

in fact, to clarify - I have twice written to Stavros, and both times he's been upmost helpful. Proving what a liar he is and how he fails to live up to his marketing.

Well that's extremely odd, I will look into that right now. EDIT: This is very odd, I'm not really doing any processing on the uploaded files, so it should definitely return the originals. I will have this fixed soon though. EDIT2: Unfortunately, the saved image in the DB itself is corrupt, so you will need to reupload after I solve this. EDIT3: Alright this should be fixed!

You said, no support. Why do you even care? F*k this guy. Delete his account. /s

That one worked for me: https://imgz.org/i4mdbiQL.jpg

Sorry I may have been dishonest there. I downloaded it from the google search results directly, perhaps this link- https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTFsEM5... it resulted in https://imgz.org/i5Q2gzwB.png

Hm, very odd that the type wasn't detected properly. The animated GIF issue is because of EXIF stripping ruining the image, though. I'm fixing that now.

Fantastic! I will send you the contracts to sign. I didn't relaunch though, I just wrote a comment about it and someone posted it and now I have to fix my EXIF stripping breaking animated GIFs at 2 am :( Ah well, no better time than the present.

Hah, Greek time zone eh?

Really? It doesn't get much cheaper than $1/mo. Yes, I know that's only 2GB, but how many images do you need to share anonymously with the internet?

That style reads like "ego defense." As in, "if I make sure it looks like I didn't try hard, then it can't hurt when they say..."

The numbers don't lie: 99,9999987% of humans don't use this site and I'm not hurt.

Well played.

I've been hoping for an Imgur replacement for simple, hosted image sharing. I'm happy to pay $1/mo, but when I tried to upload https://camo.githubusercontent.com/9ec8d13de2878c899fda0bd43... I got this, which doesn't look like what I uploaded: https://cln.sh/4coS9T / https://imgz.org/i5qphFzd.gif

Whoa now... you're putting images in the database?
