What is free image hosting?
Free image hosting stores an image on a remote service and gives you a URL that can be shared or embedded. Mini Tools sends the selected file to its image hosting service only after you choose it on the upload page.
How to use free image hosting
The upload flow is designed for a quick link without account registration.
1Choose an image
Select a supported JPG, PNG, GIF or WebP file up to 5 MB.
2Upload it
Choose a retention period, complete verification and start the upload.
3Copy the link
Copy the direct URL, Markdown, HTML or BBCode output.
Use cases for hosted images
Hosted image links are useful when a message, forum or document needs an image URL instead of a file attachment.
Forums and messages
Share screenshots or reference images with a direct URL.
README and documentation
Use Markdown output in GitHub README files and technical notes.
Website drafts
Use HTML output for pages where you are allowed to embed the image.
Limitations, privacy and public links
Image hosting is not local-only processing: the selected image is sent to the service so a link can be created. Anyone who receives that link may be able to open it.
Do not upload identity documents, private screenshots, financial files, confidential work, illegal content or images you do not have permission to share. Available retention options are 1 day, 7 days, 30 days and approved permanent storage.
