Is Photobucket the best way to post photos?

I've read in the past that photos can be posted on the forum by using Photobucket. Before I sign up for Photobucket, I wanted to ask, is Photobucket the best, and easiest, way to post photos?

Keep in mind that I was born in the 1st half of the last century, and my computer skills are somewhat limited. But I've seen photos posted by nath, and he's even more of a geezer than I am.

TinyPic - Free Image Hosting, Photo Sharing & Video Hosting is another easy way

Resize the pics suitable for the web before uploading instead of uploading big oversize pics - Assuming you're on a PC:

Image Resizer for Windows (Vista & Win7)

Windows XP downloads - Microsoft Windows (Image Resizer Powertoy for Win XP)

Yes. Photobucket gives you options to post pics in forums like this such as direct HTML code (which works very well with craigslist). Just hover over an uploaded picture, and you'll see the options you can use to embedd pictures into everything from email to forum posts.

Thanks for the replies. I'll give it a shot, but don't hold your breath. It may take me a while. My wife and I just figured out how to email photos about 4 years ago.

We have a MacBook Pro.

Well then you're already halfway there - it's what I use

CloudApp

Simple

CloudApp allows you to share images, links, music, videos and files. Here is how it works: choose a file, drag it to the menubar and let us take care of the rest. We provide you with a short link automatically copied to your clipboard that you can use to share your upload with co-workers and friends.

Aww man, now you're really confusing him. What is this cloud you speak of? Is it going to rain?
J/K!
