Flickr made a couple of changes, most notably removing any kind of integration with custom services, which has made it pretty useless to, so now I'm looking for another photo host.

Any ideas?

I just uploaded this into my photos directory from the iOS Dropbox app, and asked it for a link:

http://db.tt/GHiQjvu

Same photo, outside of the photos directory:

http://db.tt/yWDJEk9

Yeah, as I thought, giving out the direct URL bypasses any security check.


I'm fairly sure there's an Android Dropbox app too with the same functionality.

https://www.dropbox.com/anywhere

Oh hmmmm. How do you get it to give you the URL?

I see it now! From the app -- I was trying to get the link from the web interface where I just couldn't find it! Thanks.

Tap the uploaded photo, tap the chain links icon bit the lower left...

Oh, yeah, from the desktop app you rightclick or ctrlclick I think.

Not sure about from the website.
