How to post unlimited JPEGs (e.g., K20D originals)

I don't know if this is the right forum to post this...

...but this question kept coming "How to post unlimited JPEGs? (e.g., K20D originals)".

Many people have accounts at Flickr, Picasa etc. But not all. And some have size limits and quota not to exceed.

So, here is an image upload service. Upload is completely anonymous (no registration, no email required!), size is pretty large -- 16MB, and storage is kept for 2 years if not deleted earlier. The images are kept private as well.

You upload the image and in response, you get links to post, even forum markup code! No hazzle. I tested it out and in the end of this post, I show a link to a large image (11MB) posted this way.
Here is the upload link (click and upload):

(Ignore the German language -- "Datei" (file), "Duchsuchen" (Browse). Just "Browse" for the image file and click "Bild hochladen" (upload image))


The example:

Innbruck, Austria, Goldenes Dacherl
K20D + Sigma 12-24, from 7 images


Click on the image to view it in a larger size
Pic-Upload.de - Kostenlos Bilder & Fotos hochladen


UPDATE:

There have been problems accessing the service from Australia and New Zealand. I contacted the provider (actually, pic-upload.de and file-upload.net is run by the same company). They blocked access from asia because of excess "erotic" uploads. They have now disabled the block (cf. post #12) and the images should work for everybody, for the time being. I will keep you posted about the long-term availability of this solution.

UPDATE #2:

The fix is permanent, the provider promises to keep access open to everybody now.

Please feel free to use this method if you need to post larger/sharper images than this forum permits.

Access from Asia was blocked. Australia/New Zealand was considered Asia. It should work now.

This is bad news. Like access from Australia is blocked.

What about this link?

Dacherl

Can you see the image and click it to enlarge?


Note:
If this service turns out to be unusable from outside Europe/Germany, I will delete my post. It would be a pitty, though...

I can see that image but get the same message when i go to enlarge.

I added two providers, #2 and #3.
#1 works in Europe and the US. It doesn't work in Australia / New Zealand.
#2 doesn't create thumbnails but is fine otherwise -- if it is accessible...
#3 only provides a download page with 15s delay.

In Brisbane, there was a problem at work with the links on our general web access machine, but home with my Internode ADSL connection, no blocking whatsoever.

Update

UPDATE:

(I updated the original post accordingly)
There have been problems accessing the service from Australia and New Zealand. I contacted the provider (actually, pic-upload.de and file-upload.net is run by the same company). They blocked access from Asia because of excess "erotic" uploads. They have now disabled the block and the images should work for everybody, for the time being. I will keep you posted about the long-term availability of this solution.

I found the provider very cooperative and this may turn out to be a very good solution for our needs.


UPDATE #2:

The fix is permanent, the provider promises to keep access open to everybody now.


So, please feel free to use this method if you need to post larger/sharper images than this forum permits.
