Re: Photobucket :x
Boy that sucks...... Already had to redo my pictures when Comcast dumped the personal web page/space. Now if photobucket doesn't let me link the photos gonna have to do it again, and not something I really want to do again
For those of you that have a domain, do you have to have a web page service too? Or can you just use the domain for a picture storage. Not sure how to word it but when you buy the domain do they have internet base software to publish webpage and picture files or do you have to buy it too.
What Doug has seems like the way to go, I can't be reloading pictures over and over again..... Don't these people know we have Comets to build we don't have time for this crap!
Any help or advise with the domain thing greatly appreciated.

Yea! Spent today cleaning my shop, throwing away stuff and organizing stuff to give me the room to take the car all back apart to paint.poboyjo65 wrote:

Want to be painting ....something.....anything... By the end of the month.
Now not sure where to put pictures:( guess I will start with post image. Afraid to touch my photobucket and lose them but prob going to lose them anyhow.
I could see like $10@ month if it also got rid of the ad's and sped it up some, but $400@yr screw that.

Re: Photobucket :x
There needs to be an easier way on this site to share pics w/ everyone. We shouldn't have to rely on other sites to post pics here. Even when you resize your pic to the required 256kb the site still says the pic sharing quota has already been met.I don't have enough hosting space.

Re: Photobucket :x

Re: Photobucket :x
I think they want people to close accounts . I'm just gonna leave all my pics in there in protest. I have them all on my puter & on film cards so it will save me from trying to figure out how to get them all out of PB.
Re: Photobucket :x
So as many of us are loosing our Photof@cket links, it has me wondering...
Mike/Lavron...
If we're going to have to pay something, is there a way to upgrade the site and we pay the site instead of some third party?
I don't want to go through the trouble of moving them to another source just to have it happen again. I see why they want to get paid something, but if I'm going to pay, I'd rather pay this site (admin) and have some control over what happens to us.
I've always liked the idea of my grandkids finding my build thread years from now and thinking, "damn, grandpa was crazy to go through all that!"
Thoughts?

Re: Photobucket :x
My photobucket still works. I have been using it for about 15 years and I have never payed a dime. Seems funny that it still works me not paying and all? The adds have been out of control for awhile. Started using Postimage like Johno and haven't looked back.

I would not have a problem with that but I haven't a clue how much space/bandwidth we would be looking at so I have no idea what the cost would beGroover wrote:If we're going to have to pay something, is there a way to upgrade the site and we pay the site instead of some third party?
I am working right now setting up a gallery page for my stuff so maybe I can determine it after that, I just don't want to turn around every few years or months and tell everyone to pony up for more space.

Re: Photobucket :x
Ok this looks interesting, can anybody tell me what the issue they see with this if they know?

If folks were willing to pay the $47 or even the $82 (don't think that would be required unless the speed was of interest) I mean unless I mis-read this if 10 people wanted to pay $5 a year we could host our own pictures, 20 would be $2.50 a year and on and on.
If you guys are interested I will pursue this and if so would you want to make everyone pay that used it or once the money was there let everyone use it?
