Looks to be a valuable source of information,BUT, when you post your photo's to a third party site
I can't see them. One picture is worth a thousand words.
I just wasted 2 days looking at Photo Bucket warnings to update your info. Can't learn much from comments like "looks good" when there is nothing to see.
Your comments and suggestions are welcome in advance.

Two posts in 3 years and you're complaining ? What have you added? It so happens that PhotoBucket decided their "free" site was no longer free, so the pictures that were posted were lost. Now you, the non-contributor, want us to spend hours trying to recreate them all for you? Good luck with that!

 

I believe that both of you have valid points and it is a crying shame that so much of our valuable tech history has been lost due to a third party decision.
You don't have to be a ancient member to realise this, as I also have commented in the past, however if we do have any members who by chance as I would not expect them to go thru all their old posts, but maybe just by chance discover some old pic's that could be easily reposted that would be well received by us all I am sure.
Other forums have suffered from this same issue and most passionate folks feel as most of us do...
This loss is our loss.

 

There's a download available for the viewer, (You) it restores the pics posted by the poster .
Look it up and it's been discussed here on the Hamb as well.

Photobucket has fucked up the Internet for guys who depend on pictures for technical stuff.

 

I think Photobucket caught on and changed their code again. The fix worked for a while, but it's not working for me anymore on firefox or chrome.
Photobucket will be history before long the way they have screwed everybody over. Everybody I know is switching to flickr or other sites.

 

How in the hell can an entity host photos for free? Why would they?
It makes no sense at all in any frame of reference or reality.

 

Photobucket has never hosted photos for free. The site has always (in my experience) NOT had ads, just the way many other sites have gotten their income. When Photobucket was sold some years ago to (undoubtedly a bunch of attorneys and/or accountants), they removed a number of features, namely, one of the best features of the "old" photobucket, which was a "statistics" feature, then they added a ton of "buy your pictures printed on paper or canvas" that smeared all over one's web page. That's when I switched to SmugMug, which allows a multitude of features as far as formatting / customizing your own page. At first it cost me $5.00 per month, but I upgraded to the $8.00 per month to get added editing features for formatting and picture manipulation that Photobucket NEVER had, even in the early days. But for them to all of a sudden begin to charge $300.00 per user to "free" a customer's photos is simply the worst executive decision they could have made. Had they simply charged something like $20 or $30 to screw their users, many would have stayed. I HOPE EVERY user who they have tried to screw cancels their account and moves their photos to another host. Check out my site to see what's possible for a much more comprehensive and good looking site.... That's MY $0.02....... in my "frame of reality"...
