This is admittedly complicated! But it's free (for now).
With Google Drive, create a new folder.
Upload pics to that folder, then you'll see a list or thumbnails of your uploaded pictures.
Set the sharing preferences for folder / files to "Public" using Advanced, etc.
When you click on a file's icon, the window opens to a webpage containing your image, not the image itself.
Look to the browser's address bar and see an address like
ht tps ://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bywukak-o6lBWUwxMnQ1a1FTaVU/view?usp=sharing
This is actually the address for the webpage and not the image file itself.
To use on this forum, you have to change the format.
To display this picture
type:
[ img ]https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0Bywukak-o6lBWUwxMnQ1a1FTaVU [ / img ]
Disregard blank spaces.
Note the part that is underlined.
That is where you'd substitute your picture's 28-character Google file id.
On your Google Drive, that's the part in the middle, between google.com/file/d............................/view?usp=sharing

Love the pic, Hairball! Right clicking like mad on my iPad... will look for an App. Soooo much I'd rather be doing at the mo.
So how is the traffic into Toronto this summer, I'm thinking of driving up for a visit. Anything exciting going on in the city this July?

Does changing the internet options as I described above pose additional risk?

To use on this forum, you have to change the format.
Disregarding blank spaces, instead you need to type:
