Merthyr Imp 729 Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 I think the situation with Photobucket is that your photos are still there, and you can continue to upload photos there free of charge. What's changed is that they are now charging you to get your photos to appear on sites like this one. If you don't pay then your Photobucket photos won't appear any more, but they will still be there on Photobucket - subject to any changes in the future of course as caftan implies! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chulla 4,946 Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 #97. Can't do that, Jill. I use rolled-up 100-dollar bills to snort my coke - more satisfying that 1-dollar bills. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

catfan 14,782 Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Just clicked on this PB link, & my ad-blocker stopped 26 pop-ups ! PB must be either getting really greedy or desperate for cash !! http://photobucket.com/gallery/user/leozwalf/media/cGF0aDpQcml1cy8xNjM2NjU5RC1FNjA3LTRFMjUtOURBRS0zMjA5MTg3OERFQkUuanBn/?ref= 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
loppylugs 8,351 Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 105. Just go into ad blocker and look at all the links attached to PB, Mick. The site has been slow and irritating for a while. They haven't cut my photo links to NS so far so I haven't closed my account. YET. But I'm sure it's coming. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cliff Ton 10,008 Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Looking at Photobucket for the first time for several days, this popped up. Maybe they're running short of customers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ayupmeducks 1,728 Posted August 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 It's still a paid for option though, whereas up until the SHTF, it was free. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
catfan 14,782 Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 If PB offered me a free account I would have to tell em to stuff it ! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
loppylugs 8,351 Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 I just checked. My old photos are still linked to NS. Wonder when PB will get around to cutting those links? I'm wondering if maybe they've stopped cutting for a bit due to the backlash? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mick2me 3,029 Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 You can now give Photobucket feedback on this. https://insights.hotjar.com/s?siteId=242358&surveyId=26607 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ayupmeducks 1,728 Posted August 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 Link doesn't work Mick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ayupmeducks 1,728 Posted August 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 I've finished with PB, removed all my photos and deleted the account, I told them to shove their business up their.....Well you know where. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,008 Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 That link works ok with me. I've seen it before because it automatically appears as a pop-up whenever I go to my Photobucket account (which I don't use, but which I can still download from).

taxi ray 170 Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 On another forum that I am on, someone mentions a way of getting photobucket photos back. I have no idea if this works, but I will include a link to the article. http://www.trucknetuk.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=151053 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
