Personally I won't be relying on any free services going forwards, especially as I was already paying for my PB account and they still stitched everyone up.

I have been having problems with them for about a month, I can't get the image code from them so as to put pics on here

And even if YOU can see pics you link to, other people can't (try viewing your threads with a different browser and you'll see what I mean).

I use imgur which seems to work well and it's free as well
