That's why they don't want 3rd party hosting or hot links--they want people to have to go to PB and see their dammed ads.Nesikep":2nuez8j8 said:Every forum in the world is reeling with this problem.. it's nothing short of a hostage situation, and I for one will not give in to it.
If they wanted to change their policy, let that be for new pictures, but ruining the work of 1000's of people in 1000's of forums is horseshyte.
Nevermind the fact their website is SOOO full of ads, tracking software, etc it won't even work.

As a business, the company turned the service into a paid feature and offered 500 gigabytes of storage and unlimited bandwidth for $399.99 per year, which allowed for "unlimited image linking and third-party hosting." The cheaper $60-a-year plan allowed for 52 GB of storage but no third-party hosting.
I don't think they realize this reality.. For the price they charge you can set up your own server and domain name, etc and be ahead of themgreybeard":2yn5ek7i said:That's why they don't want 3rd party hosting or hot links--they want people to have to go to PB and see their dammed ads.Nesikep":2yn5ek7i said:Every forum in the world is reeling with this problem.. it's nothing short of a hostage situation, and I for one will not give in to it.

I've copied every one of my PB pics and put them back on my HD and won't give them a penny.
Imageshack did the same thing a few years ago, and now you can't even see your own photos and I suspect, sooner rather than later PB will do the same thing.
Too many other hosting venues available to use to give in to their ransom demands.

Make an account on Postimg, from there you can get links that show the full size image to post here.. just like photobucket.Bigfoot":2ym93v2n said:Gotta say, the forum has lost its allure to me since I can't post pictures.

ohiosteve":2w8k0pim said:Same. I just got photo bucket figured out too. I might pay $10/month to store my pictures but not $30.
That's way above my technology level. It took me years master photo bucket.skyhightree1":a7ol3s2i said:ohiosteve":a7ol3s2i said:Same. I just got photo bucket figured out too. I might pay $10/month to store my pictures but not $30.
