Anybody with a lot of photobucket content beware!
You guys are being hit with locked images unless you pay for "3rd party hosting" privileges now! PB sucks!

I use imgur on my thread, just a suggestion to anyone who needs to change sites.

Re: Anybody with a lot of photobucket content beware!
photocrap has always bombarded my poor old computer with malware and adware that freezes it within 10 seconds. Imgur always works for me.

^^This^^ I spent Friday afternoon downloading all of my albums from Photobucket and am uploading them to imgur. PB wants you to pay $399/year to be able to link images. I emailed them and expressed my displeasure and they said they would make an exception for "customer satisfaction" because I have had stuff posted there for so long and they would set up my account to link images for just the $60/year service. Yeah, no. I know a lot of people that are pulling their accounts from PB this weekend. That was a bad business move on their part.

Re: Anybody with a lot of photobucket content beware!
Millions of diy articles and builds written by very gracious and wonderful people are now nearly worthless. Its sad that this had to happen and I hope photobucket dies for it.

Re: Anybody with a lot of photobucket content beware!
I dont know if anyone else has noticed it or had the problem but I have noticed I get the "photobucket hosted by a 3rd party" deal on my phone, but I can see them on my computer.
