The anger from all those ruined forum threads, especially in "how to forums" or anything with a "build thread" full of images is gonna be hard to get past for them.

You hear that?

That's the sound of a million people editing posts to include the new addresses for the pictures and dropping photobucket.

Photobucket will languish with myspace.

With all my postings on these forums Photobucket has locked every image I have posted and my account unless I pay $400.00. To unlock services to post on a third party.

Just a heads up for those who use the service.

Several years ago they started marking my original pics etc as deleted for copyright or some such.  Annoyed me so much I bought my domain and installed my own pic sharing software.

I've been parking my screen captures here at Postimage.org. They are a free host used by graphic artists.

That works great.  Thanks!  :cheers:
