Now that Photobucket has decided to fleece us for hosting our photos, what is everyone using which is free and works roughly the same. (i.e. post a URL to a specific photo for threads (Forum friendly etc.)

I noticed some of the How To's have been effected which is annoying. But I've not yet found a solution. I'm really pissed with potobucket because it means having to upload all those bloody photo's again and frankly I can't be arsed lol.

I've yet to find anything and to be honest I don't think I will bother using another hosting site.
I am slowly getting there updating all my how-to's by uploading the pic's to the server.
If anybody want's me to add their pic's to the server and update the how-to please contact me by PM.

New on here and must admit it is so bad that you come across some interesting threads and you get that photo bucket restriction.

Sadly Alanmac every forum website is suffering from the issue so it's not just us.
As I've said before I am slowly getting my own pictures updated.
If I had access to everyone's I could do theirs too but sadly most are private.

It was handled very badly by Photobucket (or should i say Facebook) I personally never got any notice in a change of terms.

if it had been £20 a year many would have paid it, but $400 is just too much for most.

Just to say, I've been using imgbb and it seems to be working fine... For now.
If I ever do a how-2 because I find some obscurity not yet done, I'll ask for the photos to be hosted on the server as it's the only way to really ensure they will stick around as long as the forum.
