Farwell Photobucket
« on: February 21, 2011, 02:35:14 PM »
You've eaten your last pic particularly when you deleted a simple screen shot from AH.  How that violated your terms of service I have no idea but you forced my hand now I'll just host my own silly pictures.  It's been fun but when I go to the trouble to upload a picture I expect it to be where I put it instead of your silly image.  So long *waves*

you orta sue them Dicho, that screenshot is "Yours" you own it, it is your own "Graphical / Digital Art" that YOU created and noone else anywhere in the world could copy it if they tried to setup for the same exact screenshot.....

give em hell.......

are they doing this to everyone who uses photobucket to host AH in game Pics?

Digital Art = Digital Photo                not Drawing/rendering   just to make my post clear.....  :aok

I have always hosted my own picture.  No crap, no garbage, no one wagging a finger at me.

The only problem is when NOOBS hotlink off my bandwidth.

Dunno TC

I was losing on the average of five pic a week.  Some of my silly animated gif's I've collected and stuff like that.  Nothing copyrighted that I know of but I never worried about it.  Then I was looking through one of my AH folders and they had knocked that one out too.  

So I installed Coppermine on my hosting site and spent yesterday moving the files over.  It's a little bit more of a pita but it's worth it not to have something just go 'poof' for no stated reason.

I was a tad over 2200.  If I believed in conspiracies I'd say they were pulling random ones out so I didn't use too much bandwith even though it was a paid account.  *shrug*

they probably saw the picture of jaeger with his sheep that you keep on the instrument cluster, hiding that pesky altimeter.  :bolt: :bolt:
