As someone who ran a forum heavily invested in images stored online for about seven plus years (and with a lot of experience of those links slowly vanishing as "reliable" sites revise their policies, leaving most of our history lost to the mists of time) I'd also like to add that any image host is only reliable right up until they are suddenly not, and you might not want all of your eggs in one basket.
Imgur you can probably expect to hang around for a good while before they start closing old URLs but I would not extend that expectation to gyazo, as a clip hosting site it's going to hit the peak of user unsustainability before they need to start gouging people for money or shut down much faster.
If you really want everything secure your best bet would probably be a Dropbox folder, as a data archiving service rather than a free public image hosting one.
