The best way so far to storage images anonymously is with Opacity.io You can pay for a storage plan with a credit card or the native erc-20 OPQ. Currently it costs pennies to get a yearly storage plan. The cloud infrastructure is based on Amazon aws but the encryption applied to the files allows access to them only with the use of your opacity handle. Kinda like your private key. It's still being developed, I had some issues storing zip files and 2+ GB files but if you just want it for images its going to work perfect for you.
How dumb you think the other people are by combining "anonymously" and "pay with a credit card" in same sentence? Amazon AWS and some random crap service made by millenials and zoomers are not decentralized in any sense. (the .io domain is good indicator it is run by vegans, hipseters and startupers).

Freenet also is a great place to store data. If the images need to be retrieved by HTTP, the server must run a Freenet node with some custom proxy to forward the images from Freenet. And it might be somewhat slow for infrequently requested data.
Let me introduce you to IPFS: interplanetary file system. This is an amazing peer to peer protocol where you can share not only images but
also files, videos or literally anything you want. To give you an introduction, I recommend you to read this guide:
https://hackernoon.com/a-beginners-guide-to-ipfs-20673fedd3f
Access the company web to learn more information
https://ipfs.io/
Best part is that this is free
Depending on what you coded your website on, it should not be difficult to integrate it with this. If you most likely used JavaScript,
read this part of the documnetation. If your website uses Golang, use this github repository

This is exactly what I've been looking for!
Why not use something like Storj? Your purpose is to store a "datatype". They are basically decentralized cloud storage. So what's stopping you to use them? Are there any specific requirements on your end?

I had no idea where this post would fit best and would get the attention without getting unrelated replies from sig spammers.
I have created a small web service that automatically hosts screenshots on Imgur. I now want to store the images decentrally (and best unchangeable and cost effective). I have searched for suitable blockchain projects, as this would be the most obvious way, but unfortunately without any noteworthy success.
Now I wanted to ask if anyone has an idea with which project or with which technique this could be best implemented?
