Well good old Photobucket have decide on no more free hosting of images! The costs per year are quite high, so I won’t be upgrading my account.
Yup, I’m not paying them. I have asked for all my images back but not heard anything yet.
I’ve not sorted a solution, although posting on Facebook and setting the image to public will allow you to embed them in here by adding the [ img ] and [ /img ] tags to the url.
I don’t know why they are doing it, everybody I know who used them is not paying up. Having a bad effect on the forum though.
It will be interesting to see how it pans out. I will be saddened if they stick with it but won’t lose sleep…. yuss, it is poo that it breaks old links, but it will be a thing in history books I believe, where the public stood up and said no to the digital companies holding them to blackmail!

Yes – I’m not paying either…. time for an annoyed email methinks
I have updated one of my bike reviews with images I have saved on flikr
Can you guys see them ok?
Photos show fine mate. So a free service? Any limitations?
1TB, which should be fine. I am still playing with it to be honest., but it seem fine, and it is free
I’ve opened an account, not got any of my old images so they are gone forever now but at least can post photos again

I think Dave has saved back up of the site periodically, maybe some of your images would be held on these?
Hi all. Unfortunately my backups don’t include external photos. That would mean Terabytes of data to backup.
It seems that Flickr is the best choice at the moment for external hosting.
