I disagree because the disadvantages of using such sites include:-

1. The aren't guaranteed to be FREE indefinitely. A couple of years ago Imageshack suddenly decided to make ad-hoc users sign up as members, and then they introduced hosting charges. I had to find a new home for around 5k images, quickly!

2. Images are moderated by the host, meaning that the really fruity ones get binned.

I feel the better option is to use the boards attachments feature or install a Coppermine Photo Gallery & link it via a bridge to the board & it's membership.
