Where Can I Upload a Picture Free?

There are many online services where you can upload a picture free and share your photos with friends, family or even the whole world! The uploading procedure is much the same for all of them, and many do not require registration in order to use the service. In this article, we'll outline some of the most useful sites for sharing a picture or other file online.

1. www.fileho.com is a great website for uploading and sharing pictures and other files. Fileho is easy to use, with a simple but effective user interface. Registration is optional, but recommended, as it allows registered users to upload, transfer or deliver picture files indefinitely, all for free. There are no limitations on the size of your files. This also makes www.fileho.com ideal for trading or even selling pictures, e-Books or other digital files online.

To upload a photo, simply click "Browse" to locate the picture on your computer and then click "Upload". Easy-peasy! Fileho also gives the user a static weblink to their uploaded photo or file after uploading to make it easy to find your pics online at any time.

2. www.myfreefilehosting.com is another site that allows uploading of pictures and other files up to 100MB. Myfreewebhosting has very fast upload and download speeds, so it's probably the best choice if you have a slow internet connection. Again, registration is not required to share you photos or other files.

To upload an image to Myfreewebhosting, simply click "Browse" and choose the file you wish to upload. You will also be asked to "tag" your photo to describe its subject. Then just click "upload" and you're all done. After uploading, the website can even email you a link to your picture online. Very simple.

3. www.webshots.com provides photo-sharing online. Their service allows up to 1000 photos with a basic free account. For even more flexibility, their premium account allows up to 5000 photos for a monthly fee of only $2.49. After uploading, share your picture by messenger, e-card, slideshow, e-mail or photo album. With a premium account, users can also have access to a full-featured picture printing service.

4. With www.dotphoto.com  you can upload not only photos but also video clips or home movies. Their software will even allow you to add sound to photos, adjust both photo red eye and for low light levels in your photos.

5. www.SmugMug.com is not technically free. An account costs just over $40 per year. However, Smugmug provides unlimited uploads for your pictures or other files space. You can even host your own website on Smugmug.

6. www.flickr.com was recently bought by Yahoo!. Users of  Flickr can even mark the location where their picture was taken on an interactive map. Flickr also allows users to add a picture to their cell phones or even on a blog.

The steps to upload a picture free on most of the these sites are really simple. Some services allow advanced editing of your picture once it's uploaded, or even customizing of greeting cards, emails, etc. Upload a picture free on a few of these services and see which one works best for you.
