PHOTOBUCKET ISSUE !!

This is nice, but you haven't answered my question: CAN YOU SEE MY AVATAR? Do you see the bowhead whale picture underneath my screen name? Because if you do, the issue is of the computer here having trouble loading. If you don't see it, it's still Photobucket's fault. So?

So, it's because my pictures disappeared and it's Photobuckets fault. OK. It's Lucky that I already uploaded my Larami dinosaurs on Toy Animal Info. Because, believe it or not, the Larami Dinosaurs TAI page is now completed! And I did it all by myself! But my collections of whales on SUY... WOOOF! They disappeared. So, I will never know what was Baleanoptera's opinion about my whales collection...

And I created myself a new avatar.

I see your new avatar. Yesterday when you first asked I couldn't.

Great. Now, I will try to put back my whales collection pictures on SUY.

I just found out that I CANNOT POST PICTURES FROM PHOTOBUCKET HERE ANYMORE. The links seem to be blocked! What in the world is going on here!!???

I find it very strange, that, while you paid loads of money, you still can not use PB?
What I understand is that PB does not allow third art hosting (means you can not upload nor see photos from them on a forum or blog).

If I where you, I would message the heck out of PB!
You paid money to use PB for third party hosting right?
I would ask why I can not use PB then...

Forummmotion, the developers of this board, had the excellent idea of creating an option to block all photobucket pictures by default. It means that they think like me amd we should not support this strategy from them or soon we will not have any hosting services allowing third party picture sharing. Though, às at least two members of this forum made the colossal effort of paying that indecente fee, I configurd the forum to allow back photobucket links. However, i am doing it with very limited access to the forum what means that i need your confirmation to tell me if These pictures are working back. I apologise again that i could not be of help just im time to prevent our friends from paying these fees from PB. August I will be back home amd I will do everything to minimise this problem. Just be patient amd please do not let photobucket take your money. Im my opinion it is not just a sale of a service but a kind of blackmail.

Hurraaay for Roger !!!

I look forward to seing you back on full power again

So, could you please UNBLOCK my Photobucket pictures, just to give me some time to move them to Postimage, please? I know you did it for a good reason, but the fact is, the one you are punishing here is not Photobucket, it's me. I have hundreds of Photobucket pictures that need to be moved, so it risks to take a while. Please put back my pictures for now. I will tell you when I'm ready to be "Photobucket-blocked".

Thank you! I saw my Larami whales pictures are back, which probably means my other pictures are back as well. Up to now, I moved 144 pictures from Photobucket to Postimage, all drawings. Yes, I'm sorry, but I start by saving my drawings, crafts and exhibitions pictures before saving my toys pictures.

Now, I moved 172 pictures!!! I need some rest...

a question to the mods and admin. since all my photobucket links have become useless, is it ok for you guys to just close my collection threads so that i could just start all over again (open a new collection thread using postimage)? so many STS members' years of posts trashed just like that because of PB greed. thank you. i will start to be more active again in STS.

gerard, I moved your topics, under Collections amd also General Additions sections to the basket. If any of these were not supposed to, I can recover them easily when back. It is good to know you will be more active again. Your additions topics are particularly interesting due their eclectism. Valerie, thanks also for your effort, maybe you can move all your pictures to prevent paying that PB FEE Next year. Luckily, postimage will remain free for a long time.

I just saw my drawing of Larry Mullen jr and the barn owl is now on its side, on Postimage. A new problem. Is this common or did I just make some mistake loading it?
