Introducing YourImageShare: The Ultimate Image Hosting Platform
By Product Team · May 4, 2026 · 3 min read · Last updated Oct 30, 2026
YourImageShare is a free image and video host: drop a file on the page, and a few seconds later you have a direct link, an embed code and BBCode, with no account needed. This post is the short tour: what you can upload, what happens to the file, how sharing and privacy work, and the tools that connect to it.
What You Can Upload
- Images: JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, AVIF, BMP, TIFF, HEIC and HEIF.
- Video: MP4, WEBM, AVI, MOV, MKV, MPEG, WMV, FLV and 3GP. Formats browsers can't play are converted to MP4, so a MOV from an iPhone works for everyone.
- Up to 200 MB per file, several files at once, and no total storage cap.
Uploads work anonymously. An account is optional and adds a profile, a list of your uploads and an API key.
What Happens to the File
Images keep their full resolution. JPG and PNG files over 1 MB are optimized to WebP at the same dimensions; smaller files stay as uploaded, and ticking Original quality keeps any file as it is. GIF animations are not touched. Location data (EXIF/GPS) is removed from every image. The details, including where files are stored and how they are delivered, are in what happens to your images after you upload them.
Sharing Options
- Direct link to the file itself, for forums, chats, email and websites.
- Page link with a viewer, title and description.
- Embed code and BBCode, generated the moment the upload finishes.
- Albums for several files under one link.
- Show in the public feed if you want others to find it; uploads are not public unless you choose this, and the feed needs a title and a description.
Privacy Controls
- Auto-delete: set an upload to remove itself after 5 minutes up to 1 year. See temporary image hosting.
- Password protection for images, videos and albums.
- View-limited links that stop working after the number of views you choose.
- Delete any time from the upload's page.
Uploads are checked automatically for illegal and abusive content, and reports go to a human reviewer.
Tools That Connect to It
- A free API that can upload, list and delete, with SDKs and an MCP server for AI assistants.
- Browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox, a WordPress plugin, and Telegram and Discord bots.
- Free browser tools: an image converter, paste to upload, upload from URL and more.
