(hmmm...looks like photobucket is looking for $400/year to host photos starting today?) no.gif No prior notice supplied by PB before doing this...boo!

Can't see your pics.
Only that one is attached.

This problem is inĀ  other forums too.



Thanks Phil...with absolutely no prior notice, photobucket now wants $400/year from me to host my photos on 3rd party websites! That seems ridiculously expensive for image hosting. crap.gif

Looks like I will have to switch to Imgur (I think you use Imgur to host your pics, correct Phil?)



Holy hell!
This is really expensive.

I use[url= ]http://www.abload.de]abload.de
A German hosting service. Completely free and with great functionality.


I will need to find a solid (and completely free option) for hosting photos now...not paying $400 a year to host through Photobucket, that's for sure!

Looks like there are good alternatives out there including Imgur and your German hosting service abload.

The most frustrating thing is there was no prior notice...I only saw it today when I went to post pics.

I think a problem of the most hosting services is the size of the pics.

abload.de allows a pic size of 10MB.

And all images are stored indefinitely.


Thanks Phil! I did set up an Imgur account this morning...downloaded my photobucket album to my pc (over 1000 images), and uploaded the entire album to Imgur.

Here's my first hosted images from Imgur: (Very easy to use so far.)
