About PNG UP

Simple, fast, and reliable image hosting built for longevity. Because your images deserve to last.

Our Mission

PNG UP was created in response to the recurring tragedy of online image hosting services shutting down, deleting user content, or holding files ransom. Remember GeoCities? Photobucket's 2017 ransom? Imgur's 2023 mass deletions? We do. And we're here to prevent that from happening again.

We believe that once you upload an image, it should stay accessible—not disappear when a company changes its business model or shuts down. That's why we built PNG UP with a different philosophy: long-term preservation over short-term profits.

What We Offer

Simple & Fast

Upload images in seconds. No complicated interfaces, no bloated features. Just drag, drop, and share.

Guaranteed Storage

Choose a plan (10, 50, or 100 years) and we guarantee your images will be there for the entire duration.

Direct Linking

Share your images anywhere with direct links. Perfect for forums, websites, documentation, and social media.

Transparent Pricing

No hidden fees, no surprise charges. Pay once for multi-year storage or use the free tier with basic features.

Format Flexibility

We support all major image formats and can convert to PNG for optimal web compatibility when needed.

Privacy Focused

Your images are yours. We don't sell your data, train AI on your content, or share it with third parties.

How It Works

1. Upload – Drag and drop your images or click to browse. No account required for basic uploads.

2. Claim – Create a free account and claim ownership to protect your images from deletion.

3. Choose a Plan – Select from Decade (10 years), Generation (50 years), or Century (100 years) for guaranteed long-term storage.

4. Share – Get direct links, embed codes, and markdown snippets to share your images anywhere online.

Our Commitment

Unclaimed images may be deleted to free up space. We make this clear upfront. But if you claim your images and maintain an active plan, we guarantee they'll be preserved according to your plan's terms.

We use blockchain-based indexing for premium plans to create an immutable record of your storage rights. This means even if PNG UP the company changes hands, your images are contractually protected.

Why PNG?

PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a lossless image format that's been a web standard since 1996. Unlike proprietary formats, PNG is:

Open and free – No patents, no licensing fees
Universally supported – Works in every browser and image viewer
Lossless – Your images maintain perfect quality
Future-proof – Will be readable decades from now

While we support all image formats, we encourage PNG for its longevity and reliability.

Our Technology

PNG UP is built with simplicity and reliability in mind:

Distributed file storage with multiple redundancy levels
Automated backup systems running continuously
Clean, minimal codebase for easier maintenance and fewer bugs
Open API for integration with your tools and workflows
