Photobucket - absolute shambles!

I saw that my signature picture had been removed from here and that was the first time I was aware of this issue, however just logged in selected 4 pictures from my library and posted without on another post on here without any issues at all(my signature picture is still not displayed though

)

Had a quick look on line and yep seems there are a good few people and business for that matter who use PhotoBucket who have voiced opinion on various social media sites

Same will happen with photobucket. Plenty of other places to use

Yes ! ... I used to always use Pistonheads for used modified cars but I haven't been on the site in years since that change !

I'm in the same boat, I have loads of how to guides on the Audi forum and have been on there for over 10yrs with hundreds of thousands of views and now all the pics are dead.

Disgusting how they are blackmailing users $399 a year! They would do much better if they charged $39 a year as most people would be willing to pay that. Bunch of morons.

I pay $29.99 / year........

That is about what I pay for Flickr pro, unlimited.

Did use PB years ago all the time on the bike forum and just had a look at my account .. utter shite now and virtually unusable. Account closed.

Ive been a member of PB since 2006 and have uploaded over 2500 pics to it over the years.
I had a paid account for years and loved using it, it was perfect.
A few years ago they changed the site to a totally crap one that didn't work half the time, so I stopped having a paid account then.
I pretty much stopped using it about a year ago due to the insane amount of popups and adverts, it has become totally unusable now.
This is definitely the final nail in the coffin for me.
I've now got to work out how to download complete albums in bulk because I'm going to close my account.
Of course they wouldn't give you the bulk download feature last time everyone kicked off about the site design changing because they know people will be more likely to leave!
How shit....
