Photobucket wants 400 bucks from me; to have 3rd party hosting
Topic Started: Jul 1 2017, 09:17 PM (271 Views)

I see my images here on the forum have been replaced with a message from photobucket that says I have to upgrade my photobucket account to something called p500 in order to continue 3rd party hosting. I went over to photobucket to do the required upgrade, but they want 400 bucks for it. Anybody else having this problem with photobucket?

I've seen this happening on a lot of forums so you're not alone. Kind of like ransomware if you ask me.

I just posted a thread about this. I am not very happy about it. A lot of good info on the forum is now probably lost forever :(

I am interested in finding a new host site, but am worried that all the hosting sites could do what photobucket has done eventually.

i was going to say to use imgur but the terms and conditions says . Also, don't use Imgur to host image libraries you link to from elsewhere, content for your website, advertising, avatars, or anything else that turns us into your content delivery network.
