if anyone uses Photobucket you might want to do a quick google search
they're stopping all third party hosting.... unless you pay $400 a year

I've had 2 PB accounts for 10-15 years, I literally have no idea where all I've posted pictures over the years... and now it's all destroyed because they want to extort their customers

I have no idea where to move pictures, and honestly, doubt I care enough to go thru the process...so every picture I've ever posted here is going to have horrid place holders

and if you use/used PB... yours will too soon

Thanks for sharing. I know I have some old pictures there but I don't even remember the password or login.

I guess that has something to do with what all my account photos disappeared. But, they're still up here, so...WTF?

not sure... all your photos are still supposed to be in your PB account... but anywhere that you linked it/embedded it will no longer show it

I think they're rolling it out in stages... my friend got hit a few days before I did

Well, looks like all of my pics are gone. I'll try to make time to set up another account sometime soon.

I'll dig more into this tonight after I cool off from work and have a few beers. This is more aggravating than rabbits in the training field.
