wImg.co.uk is a quick, reliable file host without the obtrusive ads!
wImg is an upcoming image host that offers fast hosting for images, zip files and text files. Differently from other image hosts, wImg does not have a complicated or slow website. In fact the design is quick loading, easy on the eyes and doesn't contain popups or intrusive advertisements.
Top features of wImg are:
- Quick direct link and bbcode links.
- No snuck in link backs (tinypic.com, imageshack.com and photobucket.com are quite known for this)
- Photos automatically marked private (unless tags are added).
- Max upload size of ten megabytes! Great for family pictures, etc!
- Old host too slow? No problem use the URL option to upload a image directly from URL!
- Upload up to ten images at one time!
Coming Soon
wImg plans on adding a randomizer service. A randomizer service is a service that you create a pool of images and the software gives you a URL to use as the image URL instead of the ones you entered. Each time the image URL is loaded a different image from the pool is displayed, at random.
Along with this service, wImg plans on adding free user accounts so your images can easily be found if you forgot a link, or are uploading just to be a backup. This is often helpful for mass uploaders for web designers that use a lot of small images, and the tagging feature so they can be found easily.
Reception
wImg is having a fairly good reception compared to most websites and upcoming services. Many new image hosts go offline within their first few months due to a lack of a user base, however wImg is growing at a remarkable pace and is showing no signs of a slow down, but yet, many more improvements.
The blog of AboutUs' Nick Burrus covers a review of why he prefers wImg over the many other services. This entry can be found here.
