So if you've been using Photobucket for images here, time to switch to imgur

It holds the line, or else it gets the hose again

lol yeah that's insane.

Might I ask to follow your own advice and swap your sig pics? The photobucket placeholder is already bigger than the alloted sig image size and yours are stacking on top of each other.

Thanks.

Also, prepare to move to off topic...

Be seeing you.

I too am old timey, and am using Photobucket. Currently, all my photos I have posted, are still showing correctly. :blink:

Have been lazy about moving to another site, over the many years I have used PB. Though the "ad-fest" has tried my patience for far too long.

I know the ads used to slow the site down so much and at times it didnt respond :/

But still, it seemed like the most professional site which I had seen to be honest

I sent photobucket support an email saying that I was disappointed

I've been in the process to move my pics elsewhere but since I have hundreds of pics there and the site has been vulnerable to viruses for years I haven't got it done. With my laptop I don't ever sign into the site and if can be avoided I won't open links/pics guiding there.

The PB app I've used on my tablet has been most secure way to get pics out of there, but since it's an app and and a tablet it's gonna be brain damage city to do.. :banghead:

Just google 'Photobucket virus' if you're interested and find the happiness through pain like me, you're finally "forced" to move your pics from there

i just used whatever the forum recommended in the photo upload thing.... well I hope you guys can change the template lol

I expect this is some sort of underhanded attempt to thwart the free press since so many of them use photobucket for hosting their pictures.... no doubnt their parent company is linked to some shitty mainstream media outlet like time warner .....

just because your paranoid doesn't mean there not out to get you!
