About ImgBB
ImgBB is a web service for uploading, hosting, and sharing images. Users can add images by dragging and dropping them, pasting them, browsing their computer, or entering image URLs. Each image can be up to 32 MB. After upload, the site provides direct image links and ready-made BBCode and HTML codes, including full-size and thumbnail versions. The homepage describes the service as free.
Users can group uploads into albums with public, private (anyone with the link), or private (password protected) settings. Uploads can be set to delete automatically after a chosen period, from 5 minutes to 6 months. Saving content to an account requires creating an account or signing in. The homepage also describes a paid ImgBB Pro account that lists features such as no ads, direct linking, unlimited space, a replace image feature, a 64 MB file size per image, and API access. The homepage does not state which of these are included in the free service.
