Default What's a good, free (or cheap) pic host?

I have tried ofoto.com and when I use my pictures for sigs or even just to attach to messages on boards the pics never show up, just the red X thing. Sometimes they show up for like 10 minutes but then they will go red X again, so I know I am posting them correctly. Let me know a good free pic hosting site or a really cheap one that will come through on message boards please.

Here is what I am talking about :

I don't know if you can link it to show the picture but I am sure you can include the http address to that specific photo and people can click on it and pull up the picture.

I can handle the space, but it also depends on how much bandwidth it will use. I have a 1000 gig allocation, but other people to serve first.

Geek question here, we call megabytes megs, and gigabytes gigs,
do we call terrabytes, ters?

1000gb = 1 tb
