So, I CANNOT, and WILL NOT rely on IMG Tags EVER working 100% with Imgur while my Account there is set to Hidden/Private... If people here want to see what I'm posting, they'll have to click the Link from now on.

Just like using Photobucket.

In Photobucket, I DID NOT have my Account "Hidden"/"Private". So, IMG Links in Photobucket always worked there for me... But, again, due to Copyright rules, I don't want Imgur to auto delete something from my Account that "THEY" Find in violation.

ALL of my photos and images were obtained FREELY from various fan based Websites, (except for the Jelly Babies, and my .gif Files), and I would hate to suddenly have these photos and images removed by some auto-delete tool on Imgur for some obscure rule they may/may not have.

As stated, Photobucket took it upon themselves to auto-delete short B-5 Videos that were free to Fans from TNT's site, back when B-5 was being hosted there. I no longer have access to those vids, 'cause the computers that contain them are all in storage. (If they even still boot; they are circa 2006 or older...) So, I've taken the precaution this time to make my Imgur Account Albums "Hidden"/"Private".

I like the sizes option at the bottom the links section.

Use all the bandwidth you need, you won't be charged like other services.

Oh yes and the reason they broke all the links to my photos on the internet was exactly that, they wanted everyone to pay for using bandwidth.

So once you have paid, they won't charge you again for using the bandwidth, how nice of them.

And which are these "other services", I have found the top three are totally free.

Seems they are indeed feeling the pinch, but what did they expect!!

Sorry but even if the offered it free, I would not go back to them.

Reviews of Photobucket
Not good, not good at all :-)

Yup, they really stepped in it, didn't they?
Then they slipped and fell face first into it.

Here is a picture from Photobucket:

Looks like it still works just fine.

Or not.

As far as I can tell, PB has not reversed it's policy or fixed the tens of thousands of websites and forums they royally screwed.

May we All have a METAMORPHOSIS. REASON. GOoD JUDGEMENT and LOVE and ORDER!!!!!

Today I received an email from Photobucket, basically saying my hosted pictures had been restored.

Here is the email



It does not say if my pictures will remain if I don't pay.

I cannot log in as I cannot remember my user name or password as I removed them from my browser!!

Seems it has taken them nearly a year to realise they have made a mistake!!!

Very interesting...

The mind is a weird and mysterious place

What's even more curious to me is that my photo albums on my blog, and even what I've posted here, never disappeared, and I don't pay anything.

That being said, I did started using Imgur after I heard what PB was planning, and it works nicely; I just never transferred all my libraries over to it.

The mind is a weird and mysterious place

Received an e-mail from PB this week stating:
For a limited time all of your 3rd Party Hosted Images have been restored. Please login to choose the plan that best fits your needs to continue hosting your images.
Couldn't see how that was possible as accounted deleted but gave it a try :-)



Sorry PB, prefer imgur :-)

Just logged into my old account. It's worthless. I was bombarded by so many adds that I could only see my old pictures by clicking of pop up after pop up.
