So you might have noticed my footer is dead on all my replies.  Imageshack, the last hold-out has now blocked direct linking to images. 

Are there any free alternatives out there?  What do you guys use to display your footers?

Yeah I signed up for imgur, thanks.  Man this is weird.  Not only did they disable direct linking, but it appears that they outright deleted my footer!  I hope I have a backup somewhere

One little banner in the picture hosting thread isn't going to make any difference among the piles of oversized pictures.

Imgur is great, there is also http://tinypic.com/
If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.
