Rant time.
I've been using Photobucket to host the images I use in forums for the last decade or so but I've had enough the stupid-level of advertisements; unprompted audio, screen hijacking, uses more time, bandwidth and system resource to load ads than content - on an image hosting site... takes the proverbial.
Rant over.
I'm happy to put up with a few ads for a free service, as a benchmark I can tolerate the Hexus-level of ads, what can you suggest?
