An image hosting service is a type of online platform that allows users to upload, store, and share digital images. These services provide an interface for users to specify the image file location for uploading, which can be done through forms or FTP access. Once uploaded, the images are stored on the service’s server and can be linked to using HTML^[2] or BBcode. Image hosting services often set restrictions regarding image size, storage space, and bandwidth. They also offer various tools and features to enhance user experience^[1], such as creating photoblogs or galleries, auto-resizing images, and uploading via smartphones. These platforms can also track where and when the images are accessed using unique image URLs and log request details. While many of these services are free and supported by advertisements, there are also paid options with additional features and storage. Prior to the advent of these services, sharing images online was a complex process.

Terms definitions

1. ↑ user experience. User Experience (UX) is a broad term that encompasses every aspect of an end-user's interaction with a company, its services, or its products. This includes users' perceptions and responses, both emotional and cognitive, during and after the use of a system, product, or service. User Experience also involves users' beliefs, preferences, and behaviors. While usability, a component of UX, focuses on the practical aspects of a system, UX incorporates a holistic view of system use. User experience is a vital factor in increasing brand loyalty and customer base growth. Its history dates back to the Machine Age, with notable contributions from figures like Frederick Winslow Taylor, Henry Ford, and Donald Norman. Today, technology advancements continue to shape and expand the field. Developer Experience (DX) is the analog of UX for software developers. It represents the experience developers have with the tools, processes, and software they use in their work. A high-quality DX can significantly impact the overall user experience, thus contributing to the success of the product. The importance of DX is increasingly recognized in the field of software services, where ease of use can serve as a key market differentiator. This concept has been explored by various authors and researchers, and it's also emphasized in international standards like ISO 9241-210, which advocates for human-centered design.

2. ↑ HTML ( HTML ) HTML, or HyperText Markup Language, is a foundational element of the internet as we know it today. It was proposed by Tim Berners-Lee in the 1980s, and has since undergone numerous revisions and updates. HTML is used to structure content on the web, from the text we read to the multimedia we consume. Various versions of HTML, such as HTML 2.0, HTML 3.2, and HTML 4.0, have been published over the years, each refining and expanding upon the capabilities of the previous versions. The most recent iteration, HTML5, was standardized in 2014 and includes a wealth of new features like video and audio support, local storage capabilities, and new semantic elements. HTML is also crucial for SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and accessibility.
