I suggest hosting through photobucket. You can upload batches of numerous icons at a time as compared to imageshack where if you have the free account, you can only upload one at a time.

you can upload mutliple things at image shack you just have to click the browse thing again...you can upload a ton.

I can't stand using pb to upload large amounts of icons, it always messes up. I also don't like how imageshack is set up, it's not really that easy to use especially when you are talking about 500-1000 icons! But thanks for the suggestions :)

Yeah, it looks like they decided to hold off for awhile since everyone got so mad! I don't know what they were thinking :/

Personally I always upload with Imageshack (on here too). Maybe you can save them all, the icons, put them in one file on your computer and the only thing you have to do is to mark all of them at once and go on upload. Then at the right (when they are uploaded) there is a little window where the code is for all the images you uploaded. See here. I hope you know what I mean, my explanations sucks and my english is bad ;D

They went back on it, it's working for everyone again. There's a note on the main page of tinypic that says:
We heard from many of our users in regards to these changes and we appreciate your feedback. Tinypic has restored linking to your images and enabled uploading. Please rest assured no content was removed from the site. We tried to notify users on Tinypic and requested they move their content to Photobucket. Unfortunately this messaging was insufficient and has taken many of our users by surprise and we apologize. Our intent was to begin combining some of the best features of Tinypic and Photobucket, thereby offering users a better experience. Any changes in the future will be better communicated. Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience.
