Thanks for the info, Philip, but I'm having enough bother trying to migrate to another computer with a big leap in OS. The last thing I need is to complicate things by switching languages. Using meters to focus some of my cameras is bad enough.

I actually don't mind the new interface.

But as others have said, keep the free account. Plenty of space now. As for the ads? What ads? There's a reason the internet invented the ad-blocker ;)

I'm using ImageShack, which I guess used to be free but is now limited free and premium.

I'm using the lowest-level Business account, which this forum is now using to host photos. I would rate their customer service and ability/desire to respond to emails from paid users at 1/10.

There also is imgur.com, which I checked. It was close but wasn't quite what I needed.

Regarding interfaces, I think that once a site finds a successful model, others jump on board quickly to either mimic the "experience" or to provide an interface that new users will find recognizable.

Ah - I was just thinking yesterday when looking at your Contaflex repair: "I wish that Phil had added some notes like in a repair set I looked at a while back". So that explains it. Oh well.
