Picasa still world for me today. I find the link they offer does not always work for different forums. First , make sure you have given the proper permission on the pic after you upload. I typically edit to share with "anyone with the link" Then I open the pic. Right click then go to properties. Copy and paste THAT hyperlink. I did notice Google changing a bunch of stuff especially on their mobile app. You can't save images as easily. They are now using something like Flash. I just screen capture and edit. Or use Bing.
