Dont use Photo Bucket!

Post by akuser47 »

It has changed it's free member service to no 3rd party hosting another words you cannot share pictures using it unless you pay them! :evil:
I've never deleted a photo on the bucket to insure that I had not ruined a previous post.

Thanks, I've been noticing that photo bucket user's pictures have been going missing on the various forums I participate on.

If they are related to a topic/post, they can be uploaded here but that doesn't do you a lot of good for sharing outside the forum. It will be interesting to see what vendors spring up and what the pricing will be like. One thing for sure, it will be less than what PB is charging.

15 to 20 years ago, the same thing happened so I never trusted PB and went the private server route. I want to say the service was "sunflower" or something like that. A lot of the guys on gun forums lost all their images. I never trusted PB and hated their highjacked urls.
