Anybody Else Sick of this Pic?

[zenriddles]

Obviously, Photobucket is done with you if you have this in your post or Signature. At least cancel your links?

I wouldn't pay the fee, that's for sure. Is leaving it up part of a protest I am unaware of or is it just lazy or NFG?

I don't know how people aren't seeing this shit in their signatures. It's quite annoying though.

 

[Mook]

Most have sigs turned off I'm sure.

 

[blakbearddelite]

I do.

 

[HellPIG]

It is a forum epidemic

 

[Mr_Roboto]

Yeah, Photobucket is trying to go under I think and can't afford the bandwidth to hot link any more if I had to guess.

 

[sickmint79]

i figured they might have the image cached and not notice their shit is fucked up

Can I take all of my photobucket pictures and put them on FB as a place to keep them? I am not tech savvy.

You're not the only one by any means. Same here.

It's a shame really. going to take an eternity to remedy for so many people. I would say it was good while it lasted, but Photobucket as of late, before the pay for use switch, was real spotty and the website usage was a joke.

I saw a great "thought" behind what Photoshop did. They say "Oh, you want hotlinking and sharing capabilities? $400 please." and those who solely rely on photobucket will pay to at least keep up hotlniking while they move their shit to another hosting source. Say only 10,000 people pay, that's a 4 million dollar cash grab for a dying platform. Fuck it, right?

This change by Photobucket nuked my build thread.

Snowmobile forums that detailed how to fix shit? Broken. CorvetteForum and all the really helpful builds/DIY threads? Completely fucked.

Ive just been too lazy to change all of my sig pics.... I'll do it eventually.

Imgur ftw!! My sig gif has generated 534.31 GB of network bandwidth usage

 

[Dasfinc]

I'm literally in the middle of breaking down my Photobucket account....

There will be many broken threads as a result of that

 

[Dasfinc]

So what does everyone use then? IMGUR, Flikr? Etc?

Giphy for gifs
Imgur for random internet hosting
Flickr for photos I want to save (usually pics I take)

Imgur is nice, but its blocked by most big corporate web filters. Its blocked here at my work too. Sucks I can never see the pics from threads.
