I am currently in search of a place to host my images. I would like the following properties for my image host:
-Unmetered bandwidth (if they claim unlimited I will at least check into them)
-At least 10mb of storage without a file size limit
-Hotlinking must be allowed
-JPEG and GIF must be valid file formats
-Upload style must be either FTP and/or browser
I don't care if they have ads on their pages as I will just be using this host to hotlink my images. Thanks for your help!

I appreciate the recommended hosts, unfortunately both of them have a 1mb file size limit on JPEG and GIF images which is what I plan on using most. Seeing as how i have several images that break the 5mb barrier that just won't do. Any other suggestions?

Why do you have over 5mb of images? Can't you resize them?

You do realize that hosts advertising "unmetered bandwidth" actually have
far less than those who specify a limit, right? Unmetered doesn't
mean "unlimited", it just means that they host doesn't watch how much
you use -- at least not until it becomes excessive.
We have multiple accounts to choose from ranging from 50 MB to 500 MB
with up to 20 GB of data transfer (what you called bandwidth) and we
don't have any file size limits. Uploads are both FTP and Web Based.
A lessor known item is that we allow hotlinking. I say lessor known
because hotlinking is blocked by default on all accounts and people
just automatically assume that hotlinking is not allowed. The truth
is that we have the ability to set hotlinking on an individual account
by account basis and will set it to whatever you want on request.
