Photobucket: Were YOU Aware??


Chloe is showing her best Tongue Out Tuesday Shot! (Or perhaps also showing her dissatisfaction with Photobucket!!)


OK guys, I received a request for a copy of a sponsored post I did on the subject of technology.  I have not used my Reviews Blog in quite a while.  So, I did a search on the Review Blog to find it and lo and behold...ALL of the images are missing! 

Actually there is a statement on the images (which you can see above) about third party hosting being "temporarily disabled".  WHAT????  I was not aware of any changes they had made.  So, over to Google I go...and apparently I am not alone.  Many, MANY other images have been taken down.



This is extremely frustrating to me.  You would think that they would have let people know so that IF you wanted to save your images, you could!

In case anyone else is looking for an alternative to Photobucket...here is a link I found to an article that has several different options:


STAY AWAY from TinyPic....
TinyPic is a photo and video sharing service, owned and operated byPhotobucket.com, that allows users to upload, link and share, images and videos on the Internet. ... An account is not required to use TinyPic.

I will never use Photobucket again...and now I am probably going to use Flickr if the need arises to use that blog.

Great way to start off the day....

GRRRRRRR!!!

That's a great tongue shot, Chloe. We don't use photobucket any more, but we are sorry they did that to you.

We noticed that photobucket 3rd pawty hosting usage awhile back and removed the links from our sidebar so we wouldn't have to look at them anymore.

I use Flickr, and am very happy with it!

seems with photobucket you can land literally in the bucket.... we park our pictures at our own webspace, that goes easy but it's also no trouble free solution...

Well done! We don't use either.

Keep Calm & Bark On!

Oh man, that must have been very frustrating. I use google storage... I hope that nothing has gone awry there. I pay a small fee for the storage space.
