Photobucket users

Some of you may have noticed your photobucket photo's and avatars have gone. This is due to Photobucket now charging for 3rd party use. Guessing this site wont be paying somehow.
Make sure and use the upload attachment feature to up load photos instead.

I have been saying this for along time, but it seems you can take a horse to water, but not make it drink!!
Thanks again Mark, for posting this.

Yes it's a bit of a shame but been a long time coming. Photobucket has been getting worse with ad's and pop up's recently so a change is in order.

Here's a Tinypic upload I have just done.



You don't even have to register for one off's. She's a beaut isn't she?

Bit of a shame really as most of my pics have been informative (hopefully) like info to repair door solenoids & later type radios etc.
I should not think I have all those pics still on my computer, I don't know if I can recover them from photobucket ?

what is the cost?
is it just for the site, or per user?

Photobucket offers three paid plans to members, but only the most expensive plan supports third-party hosting of images. It is available for $39.99 per month, or at a discount when billed yearly for $399.99.

John, don't worry, all your stuff is on photobucket still for you to use. Its just others from 3rd parties that need to pay to view your pics.
As someone else said. Photobucket has been rubbish lately anyway. more worried about popping up adverts then uploading your photo's.

So there would be a cost to the club of 400 dollars per year.
Can the club afford this members benefit?

No as we offer free uploads and hosting anyway!
