I believe this makes post #2 or 3 and I always look forward to new (realistic) advice for bettering something I love.

I have been tooling around this and a few other sites gathering information for my future grow. It will only be a personal stash but I am still taking every precaution.

I see a lot of individuals posting pics that were obviously hosted somewhere. How private can that be?! I use a proxy to be cautious and I never give any of my real info. Even my email I used to register was setup using a proxy and I never log in unless using it.

But what about picture hosting. I also used that same email to register there too. But if I have them host a picture and I link it to this or any other forum will there be any ability to trace back to me (the real me)?

Or am I being too cautious?

chilll.

it usually a neighbor that gets you caught up. Never hear anything from posting on any forum really.
 
make sure your pictures don't have any incriminating EXIF data (i hear pics from iphones have identifiable information). Not that I figured anyone would try to hunt you down via that. everything else you've done is good though. what proxy do you use?

The IC server is hosted in Amsterdam, so unless you live in the 'Dam it's pretty unlikely YOUR gov/t is gonna have any success getting any kind of search warrant executed there for your IP information (if they even store it, which I don't think they do.)

Upload your pics here to IC. If it makes you feel any better, here is a pic of my 16000 watt room:
