Default Re: Bad news about photobucket

I gave up on Photobucket some years ago when they changed hosts and I lost well over 1000 pictures I had stored there.

I'll just keep my photos in my computer and download directly to the site.

There is nothing more annoying than looking at a thread that has pictures that are linked from Photobucket; which don't show up anymore, for whatever reason. If you have photos that are linked and it is in a thread where these photos help discribe something of interest, then hopefully you'll back and upload to update the threads on the forum.

Agreed, this has been my pet peeve on numerous forums for years.

The link in the first post (to a thread on the Early V8 Forum) has an explanation and also there have been many, many explanations given in previous posts in the past if you do a search. Also the FAQ section has explanations. Basically use the "Manage Attachments" option(s) and download them from your computer.
