Overview

An image host with one clear job

imgtree is a small place to turn a screenshot, photo, or graphic into a useful URL. It is built for the moment after you make an image: when it needs to appear in a thread, a message, a document, or a site.

The product stays focused on that handoff. Upload a file, choose the link or embed format the destination understands, and move on.

Guest

Start without a ceremony

Drop a file on the home page and get a public image page, a direct URL, a thumbnail, and ready-to-paste BBCode, Markdown, and HTML. No account is required for a quick share.

Guest uploads are for the immediate job. Fair-use limits and retention policies keep that path dependable for everyone.

Accounts

Keep the work you return to

A free account turns one-off uploads into a personal library. Images from the site, the extension, or the API collect in one place, where you can make albums, choose visibility, and see what you have stored.

  • A library for finding and managing past uploads
  • Albums with optional public gallery pages
  • API keys for automated upload and listing

Sharing

Use the format the place expects

A direct image URL is not always enough. After every upload, imgtree also prepares thumbnail links, BBCode, Markdown, and HTML image tags.

Copy the format your destination needs instead of rebuilding it by hand.

Developers

Let tools do the sending

Registered users can create Bearer API keys for scripts and desktop tools. The v1 API supports standard uploads, JSON base64 uploads, presigned direct-to-storage flows, image listing, and deletion.

ShareX and similar tools can send captures straight to imgtree. The setup guide includes import-ready configuration.

Principles

A deliberately narrow promise

imgtree is intentionally not a full media suite. It is a dependable, low-friction route from a file to a link you can use.

  • Speed — direct delivery and automatically generated thumbnails
  • Simplicity — one upload surface, several useful formats
  • Control — accounts, albums, and API keys when they earn their place
