So ImageShack won't let me upload anything unless I pay for a "premium account" (a.k.a. what I used to get for free).
Anyone recommend me another image sharing site that works from Android/Windows/Linux?

Photobucket now re-orders your images by order of the EXIF date, not the upload date.

Imagine my delight when that hit my 27 page main bucket.

I'm a premium account holder, I pay therm for this service so I complained. Their reply:

Hi,

There currently isn't an ETA for the sort date to be looked at. It was something that was going to be possible after a project our engineers have been working on has been completed, but there is no date for when that will be completed either. It's a remapping of our entire database, and that could take a few more months to be completed and functioning properly.

Reading between the lines "We broke it and don't know how to fix it so we're not going to bother."

They only allow 100 files for free though.
www.postimage.org is about the best quick and easy one just now, and if you create a (free) account you can do basic galleries too.
The only issue with it is that anyone not using adblock can see adverts which can be.... Rolling Eyes .... inappropriate in nature.
If you use the direct link rather than thumbnail options they won't get them though.

A more obscure one I uses sometimes - https://www.bild.me/

You could also use blogger or similar services like tumblr, if you know how to hotlink from the image URL
These both have mobile apps too.
Blogger actually stores images on Picassa, it is perfectly OK to use it as an image host.

Just use dropbox. Put stuff in your public folder and you can use the img tags directly (change https in the links to http)

Dropbox for android can automatically upload your pictures for you, you get bonus space for turning it on.

I've always used photo bucket, no problems at all and it's free.

Edit: Although it does turn half decent videos into shitty quality videos. Besides that, it's been good.

Photobucket is decent so long as you don't exceed the monthly traffic limit for people viewing your shiznit.
