#@%$ you photobucket

[GINCH]

Wow, just realized I can no longer host my images to third party websites through photobucket. I have over 2000 pictures on there from at least 13 years ago till now. Just logged on to see what the fee is to enable hosting the pics and they are charging $399 USD yearly. WTF!!!!! Not sure who to use now.

What provider are you guys all using? Not sure how to get the pics off now thoough!

What a PITA!!!!

I've still using Flickr which seems to be a lot less annoying than photobucket ever was.

I started using Imgur a few months back as there was a point I could not even log in to Photobucket for weeks on end. Their site seems to just being going downhill day by day and now that fee, really seems like they are trying to kill it off.

I'm in the same boat.

All the effort that went into threads from my e30 days, lost.
Thousands of photos that were embedded into various threads on many forums.

... And that's exactly what they're going for I think. People who just don't want to go through the hastle and will just pay instead.

No thanks! (& I'm in the same boat...)

Flickr/imgur are the way to go.

Re: #@%$ you photobucket

Opened a "SmugMug" account a little while ago, its a "pay for use" but is very stable across all MAC/IOS platforms which is way more than I can say about the "Pay for use" PB platform. I'm still paying for the PB but as soon as everything has been migrated the PB will be closed. On a more positive note, it's forcing me to clean out a bunch of junk and doubles etc,

I linked to a bunch of potential sites in this sticky. I personally am using imgur too and 500px.
