6G Celicas Forums

what are you guys using now.

looks like the death of many, many build threads..

and this site maybe...

I'm still using PhotoBucket for the moment, seems I've been given an exception for some reason and I'm not going to question it. Unless it has to do with the fact my account is as old as PhotoBucket itself. Flickr or TinyPic have also been around for ages, seems most are going to Flickr.

I can't even tell if my account is working anymore on photobucket as the site doesn't load correctly (except for the adds), and then the browser lags lol.

I've had a strong dislike of Photobucket the last couple of years but I've simply carried on because so many of my pictures were already on there. This gives me a good excuse to finally make the switch as soon as my links are all broken. I have a feeling that this will be the end of Photobucket.

wat

on my account it says I have only used 12% of the amount Im allowed

The most insane part of this is that they want $400 a year...


any ideas on the best way to rebuild threads after transferring the photos to another service?

(this of course could have been avoided if the photos were hosted on 6GC like alot of other forums do)

no way to fix this, either photobucket changes policy, or thats it bro...

RIP build threads...

Well that or you give in to the ransom or painstakingly change out all the images after re-uploading them. You can click on their "no 3rd party" generic image and it'll take you to the actual image in the album so you know what it was, but it'd be a huge undertaking. I suspect PhotoBucket folds soon after everyone leaves and they have even less money than when they started this bs.

I probably won't be bothered to go back and fix my project thread but I will reupload and replace pictures in any how-to or informative threads I've made.

no one reads my build thread, lol. wont do anything. no one is interested here in a 2gr celica, lol. my pics still work, be a mater of time before they crap out.

Imgur.

Only downside is that it doesn't size down to 1024x768 for you (which is nice for posting on forums). The upside is 56k warning doesn't exist anymore.

Looks like I have a nice long task ahead of me...

Hopefully this doesn't kill all the stickies in this forum
There's too much valuable information to lose it all.

Interesting, most of mine are working atm.

Any chance you have the images saved somewhere else?

for some reasons, some users still have the function, and some don't.

I had 2 accounts, I just deleted 1 acct. will wait to see what develos, if they revert. if not, I will delete my main acct. and that will be the end of it..

I've had mine for years with no issues... It does appear to be dying, although I don't know the details behind its death.

Wow, I just discovered this. All of my posts since 2007 have been obliterated. I don't think I have it in me to reconstruct my build thread...

First FB turns this place into a ghost town, now photobucket ruined the only remaining draw

I just logged in to both of my photobucket accounts and downloaded all of my albums, then re-uploaded to my Imgur account in a hidden album.

Seriously, photobucket can get bent... More like PhotoPhucket.

Ended up going to Flickr since they have a mobile app for uploading and embedding links is fairly easy, though a little more finicky than what PB was. Plus Flickr is owned by Yahoo now so I doubt they'll pull a stunt like PB any time soon.

Flikr or imgur. I'll probably be moving to Flikr pretty soon myself.

I've been using my facebook as a host though on other forums, but for whatever reason, this forum isn't FB friendly when it comes to using photos linked from there. :\

Photobucket won't even exist in 2 years anyway.
