Stan- I've had a Photobucket account since the early 2000's
I started it before digital camera's became big. I would scan my film, and then upload it to Hunt101 to share.
Hunt 101 crashed, and some guys on Upland Journal (in it's earliest days) said they were using Photobucket.
So, I went there.
On my library, there are pictures of dogs from birth thru death. Their entire careers documented for my pleasure. That's 15 years and more.
Regrettably, I noticed unexplained "Link Copy Paste" problems with no email explanations several months ago. Near as I can figure, when I hit more than 60% full, the come-on's to buy more space increased to continuous.
I thought the LCP problems were due to storage.
Not a warm up to Photobucket killing their product.
Photobucket has no interest to me if I can't link to websites. And I'm pretty sure websites have figured out their free content has dried up from this. So places that get paid for views (like UJ) have to be really hurting.
Raimey's idea that it is either volume or age-of-account based for the curtailment of linking is probably correct.
I say that because my account is old, and I noticed the link problem long ago, and secondly, I noticed that my old smart phone backed every picture up to PB continuously, filling their server's with crap.
So, multiply that by millions of accounts.
I can't imagine the number of professionals begging to get their free web presence back.
I'm small potatoes.
Out there doing it best I can.

I see not much difference  this morning. Except way more ads and a feeble attempt to bill me for an add on service. I will be moving away from FB.

My pics are still up. I guess they're going after and deleting, "3rd Party Hosting" whatever that is. They just don't like third party stuff, just like my current girlfriend.

Has anybody found a good replacement for Photobucket yet? I've tried Imgur and it's not intuitive. Perhaps I'm being to timid?

How in the hell does imgur work! I loaded the app and signed up. Successfully uploaded a picture but can't find any way to copy it to attach to this board.

Try jpgbox.com. They're back on line after a crash last night. Very easy to use. Problem is they limit the format...you can't blow them up easily - important for printed material.

I'm using imgur from a pc and you click on the photo you want to appear on the BBS, then it becomes larger and a list of options appear to the right of the photo with a copy button next to them. I copied the bbcode and this is what you get

Well Steve, it sure doesn't work that way with a iPad. Works great on my office PC.
