no more Photobucket - all pictures are down

Post by paso750 »

as you may have noticed the pictures that were hosted and linked to Photobucket are gone.
Photobucket does not allow 3rd party links anymore unless you get a $399/year membership.

As soon as I find a solution I`ll fix my own pictures beginning with the ones in the FAQs. This will be a process as there were many and there`s no automated way of doing this.

this sucks.

I have seen this mentioned on other forums today. Flickr is still OK apparently. Someone else was complaining that Dropbox Photos have made it difficult to share photos. I use Google Photos which works as long as the photos are in a shareable folder. You can post then individually by right clicking on the image and copying the image address into a post.

thanks Derek. I`ll look into that. Something of my own would of course be the best.
