Alexander. Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) Are you wanting to share a screenshot of a video game for whatever reason and don't know how too? Look no more. Here are my top three suggestions and best of all, it's a free service which allows you to upload unlimited photos for no cost Imgur LightShot TinyPic If your sharing an image on a discussion board, use the bbcode tag. Hope this helps, if anyone else knows of any other alternative image sharing websites, let us know below so we can support fellow gamers.

killamch89 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Imgur is the one I have been using for over a decade and I personally recommend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality vs Adventure Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 That's cool! I love taking screen shots to save for the memories. Imgur looks like a good one. It's fun to see what others have pics of too. Especially the newer Assassins Creed games since you can edit your photos in game. They should develop that ability for every game to be able to capture an image at any moment and have 360 view, zoom in or out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say PlayStation games in particular have really embracing and pushing the idea a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 I prefer IMGUR. As those images can be later embedded into the blog and forums too. So in that contextwise approach, i'd say imgur is perfect for my needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you imagine looking back at all your gaming pics decades later? I've only played one other game that has photo capabilities which was Monster Hunter World. But even that was limited.

The Blackangel Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I take snapshots and short videos on my Switch all the time. If I want to post them, I just upload them to Twitter than save them to my PC. My Twitter is a throwaway account that I only use for this purpose alone.

I hear that, but I don't even have a twitter or facebook account. In my hay days I would have been thrown in prison if I did. 🤪🤡 Revolution! 👊 Not a bad idea though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 This image is sourced from IMGUR. Pretty good support on forums if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazycrab Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 (edited) I was using IMGUR for forums but I found out on this forum you can now import images directly so I've been doing that. Edited October 31, 2020 by Crazycrab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreiMirfi Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 I've been using Lightshot for friends. It's very simple to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Yes these days xenforo and VB and even the IPB allows lot better import of images. So forum image usage is lot easier than before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empire Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 One and only site that I use allot to share gaming-related images and most other images are on Instagram. That would be the biggest network. Other are just not really sharing but sites to upload images then able to get a share link to post on websites and forums 🙂 Allot of sites that you post images to only allow so much upload space and so I add images to imgur then get a share link to post on the forums.

skyfire Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 I also recently learned about embedly which can be used to share the content which is hosted on another social media. Instagram i never found oout if it suits for the gamers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
