DBIMG is a free, fast, and privacy-focused media hosting platform for images, videos, and audio. Upload up to 75MB per file with no account required, no storage or bandwidth limits, and no compression or watermarks. Get permanent direct links for sharing, hotlinking, or embedding with HTML, BBCode, and Markdown. Files are delivered through a global CDN, with metadata stripping, security scanning, password protection, expiry dates, and API access.
I've been working on an image hosting platform that's free for everyone to use, with loose limits and high file sizes — the kind of host I always wished existed but could never find.
Quick backstory: I got tired of the usual image host annoyances. Links expiring after a few months, uploads getting compressed into mush, tiny file size limits, forcing you to make an account for everything. So I built my own.
What you get:
Permanent direct links. Your uploads stay up.
High file sizes — 75MB per file for everything (images, videos and audio alike), and Pro bumps that to 250MB. 15+ formats.
No account needed to upload. Drag, drop, copy the link, done.
On-the-fly effects from the URL — /greyscale, /blur, /rounded, /circle, rotations, and a few more. No editing software needed.
Albums and galleries for organizing your stuff.
Password-protected uploads if you want them private.
A real API with API keys if you're a developer — docs are on the site at /developers.
It's free, and there's a premium tier that unlocks the fancier effects (pixelate, duotone, enhance) and higher limits. But the free tier is genuinely usable on its own — I use it as my daily host.
