Imgur Pro Was $24/Year Now Free

131

Imgur have released their Pro features to all for free.

A summary from TechCrunch:

Here’s what’s changing:

  • Free accounts were previously limited to 225 images at a time; after that, your oldest photos would disappear. All accounts can now store unlimited images.
  • Everyone gets access to imgur’s analytics tools, which show how many people have viewed your image over time and where they’re coming from
  • Everyone will see ads.
  • Pro users were able to host images up to 10MB in filesize before Imgur would compress them down to something more manageable; free users, meanwhile, were capped at 5MB. Now everyone is capped at 5MB. (The exception here is animated GIFs; those can be up to 200MB.)

      It's more informative, the ozbargin community does every few weeks. Especially when it comes to massive sites such as imgur.com.

        That's what the forums are for.

          A lot of people don't visit the fourm. Sometimes it's better to be a deal.

        • theres a forum?

          @furythree:

          I've looked and I cant find one.

  • So basically, you get
    - to upload unlimited images,
    - the size limit has dropped to 5Mb
    - your pics get served with ads.

    • Adblock Pro appears to take care of point 3…

    • Who the hell in this day and age lets ads appear, I've not seen one for years.

  • Do I need to do anything if I'm already a free member?

    • +1

      Just checked and I can see all 235 images in my account now so probably not.

  • How do we sign up to pro?

    • You don't need to sign up to it. You just need an account and you automatically have the features.

    seems like an acquisition coming soon…

  • Thanks muncan. Nice find.
