Image Hosting
I'm looking for a new place to host images. I've always used PhotoBucket but I've had a lot of problems with them lately so I need a new host. I just named probably 200 cards which took forever and the titles just disappeared. I'm looking for somewhere that I can create albums and name them as well as name my images and have them put in alphabetical order. A link to my bucket so you know what I'm talking about:

I would like something as similar as I can get.

RE: Image Hosting
I hear you on Photobucket. It got to where it took forever to get cards loaded up with all the ads that keep popping up. You can't see the full image or title without clicking on the photo. Really a pain to browse for cards. Years ago it wasn't that way. And you can't move cards or a folder without losing your titles. You have to copy then delete. Became such a pain, that I just deleted everything out of there. I still have all my scans on the computer. I had several thousand cards loaded, but won't bother with that again. Seems like a lot of people use Flickr.com. May give it a try sometime, but only going to load autos and game used.
I collect Andre Johnson, JJ Watt, Redskins who played in the 70’s & 80’s, HOF’ers and Texas A&M Aggies.

Yeah, the last time I moved images in PhotoBucket the titles went to the new folder so I was sick when I moved 200+ images to their correct folders and the titles didn't move. The ads are ridiculous so I paid for ad free but that was before I knew about all the other issues. Now the download album doesn't work so I had to buy a plugin for Google Chrome just to download my images. I'm definitely done with PhotoBucket.

Try sportscardalbum.com. Fantastic image hosting, free, you can create folders, sub folders...and it was created by a former BMB member.

Thanks, I will definitely check into that. The only thing that worries me about them is if they will be around long term. I don't want to lose days of work again but that looks perfect.

My comment doesn't seem to be showing from earlier, but yeah, I use sportcardalbum as well. They've been around for at least 3 years now, and are broadening their offerings as well.

I guess I will move over there and give them a shot. Thanks all for the recommendations!

Sports Card Album looks awesome but it just isn't functioning for me. Several of my albums point to a generic link that brings up all of my cards and I have no way to access several of my albums. Has anyone experienced this?
