it means you should post pictures directly from your computer - since places like photobucket, or whatever it's called, can come back after you've posted your pics via them and suddenly make them disappear. In other words, your pics are hostage for posting until you pay the ransom of updating to 3rd party hosting - which, I assume, has a fee associated with it (someone else will have to confirm, I don't have an account with a photo place). It's crap, and it's why we have lost tons of old photos on this site than can't be recovered. many others have been bitten by this same gotcha.
