Does anyone know a Cubeupload alternative?

Now that cubeupload is dead, I need to just get a new whitelisted account. Any suggestions? Requirements:
It must be free
You don't have to make an account
Thanks, TLP.

Pretty sure Cubeupload will be back. It's been down several times before and it's always come back. Unless you know something I don't and it's been officially announced that the site is gone forever, I'd wait.

Look in the WIKI for a list of allowed photo hosting sites.

Try TinyPic if you can handle the annoying ads.

Do NOT try TinyPic. Many images get deleted after a while (or if you're unlucky, will be replaced by a spam image (example: “Win a free iPhone now!”) or even worse, an image not appropriate for Scratch) and also, some ads on the website can lead to scam websites (or even worse, a virus on your computer when the ad loads, no clicking on the ad required.)

To answer the main post, cubeupload is not dead, and will be back after possibly a couple of hours (or a few days)

Tinypic is perfectly fine, just ignore the advertisements or get an adblocker.

Use cubeupload still

When the downtime occurs it's down for about a few hours and then it returns to normal

ANNOUNCEMENT: Cubeupload is back and apparently using a new server! I understand why, with the old one constantly having downtime.

Hey, I know this topic is old, but Cubeupload's down again, and all the images on this site that were hosted there are gone. I read a bit about what's going on, and I don't know if it'll be back up soon, so is there an alternative? Does anyone know if the images will be back soon, if at all?

Yeah, if you watch Cubeupload's twitter they're working on getting it back up. They're also definitely going to keep all previously-uploaded images – those aren't gone forever. But once it's back up, you'll need an account to upload pictures – basically they had a whole bunch of very very illegal images being uploaded by spammers, and they didn't have a way to ban those people, because.. they weren't using accounts. So now Cubeupload requires you to register an account and verify its email, so they're able to ban people who upload stuff like that.

This is bad, but I've heard rumours of a new primary Scratch image host, so we'll see (I think it's already been added as a host you can use, but I don't know what it's called)

Oh, cool. I guess that's all good news. Thanks!

So it turns out it hasn't been added yet, but it has been suggested by the moderators to the developers, so we might get a new host soon.

You could use AdBlock or use Brave internet browser if you don't want ads.

Don't do Necroposting. Is when you post in a old topic without a valid reason.

1: don't necropost (see above post)
2: tinypic is dead, so there was no reason to suggest an adblock

I didn't notice it was an old post.
