ImageShack did the same ransom thing a couple of years ago.
Been using TinyPic, but probably only a matter of time.....

How's the Imgur thing working out for all you guys that switched?

My pics have been working because I have a pay account (PB Pro = $39/yr) and as a paying customer, I was given some extra time to keep posting pics from that account.

However, I got my ransom notice the other day. Time is SHORT. Hate to see some excellent pic threads on various boards become TOTALLY useless.

Test 2 is not working.

So far haven't figured out to move a ton of pictures from photoshitbucket yet.

fp:

What is a "ton of pictures"??????? I just moved 25 pics in about a minute then I quit.

cut and paste......I moved single pics, don't know if I can do a "ton of pictures", this way.

You might have to go to Photo Bucket and delete pictures that are "NOT THAT IMPORTANT"..........cut from a ton to something less.....

Thing is......once on your desktop, then you can save to any numbers of things....thumb drives, SD card, etc.

So what do you guys suppose they're saying here?

"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."

What we do here seems fine to me. Another alternative may be google photos, but imgur has a better interface for uploading/sharing.

fp, you need to get the actual image url if you want to include it in the post. The actual image url will end in ".jpg" The link you have is to a page that basically "wraps" or contains the image.
If you're on a PC you should be able to right click on the image and select "Copy image address" or something similar and you'd get this: https://i.imgur.com/5ZjBDYL.jpg on your clipboard.

Then put that in the img tags.

Wonder if they are prepared for the mass exodus from PB as folks migrate over to Imgur?
