Bluebear Posted June 28, 2017 Posted June 28, 2017 Photobucket has been dire for years mate. I changed to imgur yonks ago and never looked back. They don't compress your images down either which is good. Quote
fordie_glanzaV Posted June 29, 2017 Author Posted June 29, 2017 Any way of getting my build thread back without having to edit the whole lot. As it looks like all the pics been blocked? Quote
TimD Posted June 29, 2017 Posted June 29, 2017 You have to have a certain level of paid membership with Photobucket to post photos on forums now. Your options are to pay them, or move your photos somewhere else. Quote
morgey Posted June 29, 2017 Posted June 29, 2017 Those using imgur phone app is there a way to share the img link directly? Also can you create folders?It looks much more like instagram than a useful picture sharing app. Quote
TimD Posted June 29, 2017 Posted June 29, 2017 I don't find the imgur app particularly user friendly for external linking, but I do all of my external linking on a PC, so that's not really an issue for me. Quote
morgey Posted June 29, 2017 Posted June 29, 2017 This is my issue, for phone friendly image sharing nothing I've tried matches photobucket. I can share with a link but not with a live image which is just annoying, i know you can add the [img ] bits yourself but thats not practical when updating progress threads etc. Quote
Bluebear Posted June 29, 2017 Posted June 29, 2017 Nope, not with the Android app, which is a shame. The only option is to select 'Share Direct Link' when holding down on a photo and then copying to clipboard. As you said, you'd have to wrap the tags yourself.The web interface has preformatted copyable links however. Quote
fordie_glanzaV Posted June 29, 2017 Author Posted June 29, 2017 They are holding all photos in photobucket album untill people pay $400 a year. Which is ridiculous. i cant access any pictures to save them or move them.. Quote
morgey Posted June 30, 2017 Posted June 30, 2017 I've just had a look at there new terms surely they would need to email people to let them know whats going on? Maybe look at getting the cheapest package and downloading all the images if yju dont have them any more Quote
morgey Posted June 30, 2017 Posted June 30, 2017 Recieved an email this morning, for image hosting please purchase the 500 plus pack 😂😂Thats the death of photobucket then 😑 Quote
fordie_glanzaV Posted June 30, 2017 Author Posted June 30, 2017 Yeah they didnt really make it clear what they were doing...Luckily I've got "most" of the pics i want on my phone anyway. Gunna be a pain now to find new app friendly picture host. And having to re do my build thread!! Lol Quote
