whats the best or easiest way to upload images to my pictures and videos forum? I am currently using photobucket then coping the image url from there but is there a better way??

Yes, for images go to theimagehost.net and browse the image then click upload.

For vids, hmmm idk that yet
I highly recommend you use http://upit.cc/
I recommend it to all my users. It's great for forums because once you upload everything it provides a BB codes for every images.
From my forum alone, all users upload about 300MB a month to that site.
I've also found that they have the quickest load times.
I don't recommend you register though because their UCP is really useless.
I think the only good way to have photos on your forum is by attaching them. This way you can ensure that the photo is up as long as your website is.

Back in the day most of the photos on one of my sites were hosted on http://www.imagestation.com which was a huge image host. It went belly up, so now most of my really old threads have nothing but broken images.
i think this is a great site for upload images just try
http://www.uploadside.com/
I'm impressed no one suggested the 2 top hosting sites.

www.imgur.com

&

www.minus.com

Those are my 2 favorites, Recommend IMGUR, because the UCP and upload process is soo much easy to use and easy to follow through than minus.

IMGUR > Upload > Click on BB Code link and it copies it straight to clip board. Very quick and easy process.

Only reason to sign up is to have a history of your pics.

Also get the browser extension, you can screenshot and it goes straight to IMGUR and in your clipboard. Same with if you see a image on google, right click > imgur > rehost image and straight to clipboard and on IMGUR.

They are also working on a desktop version, so from your desktop you can upload any local files to IMGUR.
