Photobucket Insanity

Ok People that have used Photobucket for Signatures or Lair tiles be warned. All game tiles using them have a crappy message on them to update your account to include 3rd party hosting .


What that basically is it seems is any link you use on another site for the photo to display they want you to pay for it .

Thing is the only option they have for it costs $40 dollars a month for something they have been offering for free for years on a Site that is so add heavy its ridiculous. Of course they want you to go add free but wanting to charge you $40 bucks a month to display your images on a forum or site Is just Flat out Piracy

It will take me a little bit to get my public buildings transferred over to Imgur and hopefully they don't follow this insanity

Thought id let everyone know what was going on with it .

Well, just came back from my va-ca to find Sanctuary all messed up and my apt in the same shape ¬¬

Did a quick re-do with some basic tiles but I guess they won't last long grrrrrrr!

Yeah, I'd suggest imgur, but who knows how long they'll be free. I sort of lost everything too-even things I paid for years/months ago.

Not complaining! I know mortll mun will get me my images for stuff when she can-but some people no longer play so is a loss.

Photo bucket still has all the images of you log into your account. It's the link to the 3rd party sites you now have to pay for

Oh, yeah! I mean I know they have them...but I'm not paying the obscene fee they're asking for monthly. Rumor has it's 40 a month.
