ImageShack is a subscription-based image hosting website headquartered at Los Gatos, California.

Although ImageShack always had a subscription service, the majority of its revenue was originally produced from advertising related to its free image hosting.[1] In January 2014, ImageShack announced that it was switching to a subscription based service and would no longer offer free uploads.[2]

Images stored in free accounts were still available until January 31, 2016, and free accounts not converted to paid accounts were deleted after that date. The new website interface does not allow direct free web-based access to the original image resolution, but images can be bulk-downloaded at original resolution using their SkyPath application.
