I am about to take pictures of my basement to get opinions
on what I should and should not do in a DIY remodeling

There are a number of free picture hosting services on the web,
ImageShack and Photobucket are only two.

Please don't use photobucket, they make it next to impossible to download
the pictures in anything other than .bmp format, and they have *way* too
many ads.

Use tinypic, or imageshack (if you can figure out how to direct link to the
image so we don't have to see the ads).

Best is to use the webspace your ISP has given to you, but that's likely
beyond the skillset of most people.

I just went to photobucket, clicked a random choice from the "most viewed"
list, clicked download, and the file format was jpg. No bmp format offered.
Is it possible the format you download will always match whatever the
original upload format was?

on usenet at "alt.binaries.(???)" {work, anything, pictures, ...}
pick a spot.

"alt.home.repair" ought to have a companion binary drop like
"alt.binaries.home.repair" for sharing such pics but those other
file hosts work too

This is the least desirable way for many reasons.

The main reason is that not everyone has access to Usenet or binary
groups.

I use Tinypic

Most likely appear in format same as upload. It would be nice if folks
paid attention to the resolution of their images so's those of us with
slow connections don't have to wait 10 minutes for a photo of a shingle )

We could make them black and white photos. That would speed you up.

That makes you very disagreeable.

Yeah, but some here would agree. No need for another Usenet group,
countless threads telling them how to post a picture.

YMMV

Huh? All I've seen are jpg's- and some videos that I've uploaded. I
think you download what was uploaded.

Ads? I've never noticed them, but had to go look at my pages. A
banner across the top & a small ad in a side column. Less than 20%
of the page. Small price to pay for being able to store & share
500mb of images and videos.

[OK- this time I hit a damn sears ad that popped up if you hovered
over it. Annoying, but still photobucket is a good deal and simple
to use]

Can add tags and descriptions that tell what it is or ask your question.
Check out flickr.

Are tags and descriptions searchable by google.

Yes.

If you want to post, for example, a schematic of a Foobar 483Z, where do
you post where "Foobar 483Z" is searchable?

If you're talking about Flickr, put it either in a tag, in the
description, or both places. Simple.

There may be as good or better places to post pictures for free. But
without going to a binary group, which lots of people can't access, I like
flickr. Maybe if I had tried photobucket, I'd like that better, but flickr
works for me, is free, and is very user friendly. It also is very
googleable.

Agree on both counts.
