Hi! Is there anyone here who uses TinyPic? I read the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, though I'm still confused on some things. >_< Can anyone please help answer these questions?

1) Do you need to create an account to post pictures on TinyPic?

2) If the answer to question 1 is no, then are there any circumstances where it won't be free if you don't have an account?

3) Will the site store personal information for nonmembers?

4) Is it good for posting Creature Suggestions for Egg Cave?

5) Are you allowed to use it to post fanart?

1) I don't think so.
2) I'm not sure. I don't believe you'll be charged, though. I think it's completely free.
3) I'm not sure but I don't think so.
4) Yes, but you'll need to click on "full size image" so that it takes you directly to the image, rather than just the site, so it's easier to view the creature suggestion.
5) Yeah, I think you're allowed to use it for just about anything.

I use it when I want to upload a pic to another site real quick and don't feel like logging in to another photo hosting site. What I mean is, I don't post things on TinyPic. I use it to get my files in a format that I can post to forums (HTML Link), etc.

I do not have an account on TinyPic.

Whenever I return to the site, all of my previous uploads are still there, so I guess they hold that data. Anything you upload to the internet is pretty much permanently there anyway.

For #'s 4 and 5, I say sure. I've done both, no issue. But by posting, I mean posting on a site other than TinyPic.

For Question 3 I think the website will only store your IP address and what you uploaded. Nearly every website will gather a few details about who accesses the site.

As the questions have been answered, this topic has been LOCKED.
