1. What image host do you tend to use the most? (e.g. imageshack, photobucket, imagevenue, bayimg etc.)
Photobucket
2. Why do you use this particular host? (e.g. it has a feature that no one else does? explain briefly why you don't use another site)
Because you can easily view your album, upload images quickly, choose a custom URL for your album. Unlimited bandwidth as well.
3. What are generally the sort of images you host there? (e.g. sigs/avatars? personal photos? or just anything for posting on forums? etc.)
Signatures, avatars, mainly images pertaining to any graphics I've made. Also screenshots and such.
4. Is there anything you dislike about the image host you currently use? (slow to load? bombarded with ads/popups? can't easily get links to the pics for showing friends, or posting in a forum? limits aren't very big? etc.)
The new uploading system, I agree that it is quicker but occasionally the upload stops at 100% and the page doesn't load so I have to refresh and then the image appears in my album successfully.
5. Would you be willing to start using a different image host if it had some decent features?
Yes, if it had features similar to Photobuckets or possibly better ones.
