I can't answer to those two sources, but one can start a Photobucket account for free. Also, up in "Guidelines and Suggestions" is a link to how to post pictures without using the forum software method. I've found that to be easier than trying to insert images through the software. As for size, one needs to be sure and resize their photos in imaging software before uploading them to the hosting site so that they aren't too large for the forum page.
If you note at the bottom of the page, there is a right to left scroll bar visible. That has shown up because someone has posted a photo that was larger than what fits on the forum page. In this case, it isn't too bad, but I've seen some pretty large photos really extend the forum page and one is forced to scroll right and left just to read the comments.
The link below gives the instructions on posting photos into the body of the comments as they appear here with most of the rig photos. Those instructions are written using Photobucket as the hosting site.

Sr Fox I didn't realize you have Cafe Roma in Mexico. We may have been by there a few years ago.
We loved the Puerto Vallarta side rather than the Cancun side.

You guys all have some very nice rigs!
Here's some pics of my current camper, an 06 Aliner LXE.
This the truck I plan on using to tow my FT TT with. Of course I plan on getting just a tad bigger camper to FT in.
Here's the little galley. To the right is our small wet bath.
Here DW is sitting on the couch which folds out to a king bed.
Here's my awesome giant screen (19") inverter powered TV/DVD player I mounted in the rear bubble, set up for travel. The curtains slide away and the bottom folds out for viewing.
There's not much room to move around inside, but when I set-up camp I have plenty room. That tiny 1,200/1,500 watt generator will run my tiny air conditioner and charge my battery at the same time, barely burning any gas (4 hrs/gallon).
It may not be much, but it's paid for and gets great mileage (17-19 mpg towing with my 6.4l diesel truck and 22-25 towing with my little car) - eat your heart out folks.

Chip,
There is a lot to be said for "paid for" and "great mileage". Looks like you have comfort figured out. And the bird looks happy. It's not about having what you want. It's all about wanting what you have. Don't brag about your mileage too much after all, the Spaniards used to go thousands of miles on a galleon.

I would get that comment from people all the time when in the CG or on the trail. My reply was usually, "Well if you had a dog for 28 yrs., would you be afraid it might run off one day?" That was Sunny who passed away last year after 28 years of love and devotion - a full life for a sun conure. I don't know if I'll ever get over her. It was like losing a child. She enjoyed camping as much as we do. She would quietly sit on my shoulder as we hiked the trails, taking in nature. When she saw something that interested her, like a nearby tree or stream she would fly to it to check it out, but would always return when called (or if she got tired or hungry first.) i57.tinypic.com/4rzukm.jpg"> i27.tinypic.com/312b58n.jpg"> i49.tinypic.com/xqe0sj.jpg">
We have a new camping companion now, Skittles. She has helped me immensely in dealing with the grief of losing my beloved Sunny. i43.tinypic.com/2wmowvp.jpg">
She has been with us on 2 trips so far and seems to love the outdoors too. Though fully fledged and a very strong flyer, she hasn't wanted to explore much just yet. She's only a year old, so it's hard to pry her off of us, though she will often fly from one to the other. I'm sure in time she will get more adventurous, but she's only landed in a tree once so far. Right now, she'd rather be on us, and that's OK, as she hasn't learned to fear raptors yet.
I started this one below a while back that was kinda fun.

I thought I'd start this one to "Post Pic's of Your Rigs!" Thought that would be cool to see a lot of different rig set-ups.
Inside and out.
I'll have to dig some up of mine.
