Photobucket ends third-party support, wiping out MANY photos on this site. :(

As many of you are probably noticing you are seeing a lot of error messages from
Photobucket where the picture you posted used to be.

This is because Photobucket has ended third-party support (i.e. the ability to cross-post
your photos to social media or chat forums) unless you buy some outrageously expensive
premium level service.

I will have to fish around for some other hosting service and repost my pictures.

I dont even know if our gallery is working on here anymore ill look into that, but yearh....I had FOTKI (weird company) for 10 years then they took my account away for non-payment. Had connected email and all. Snapfish just reported changes a few weeks ago too....

Cell phones, blame cell phone photography phasing out these great sites!

Or you can just post them here directly and then there is no issue, like this old Grand Union shot (not even sure if it's one I had or one that is from the site previously, just a handy test item).

Just click the additional options below where you type a reply, then use the attach line and give it the file name from your whatever.

Thanks!  When I have time I'll go back and reattach the photos
Photobucket just zotted.

They send me emails every day trying to sell me some custom service.
Surely not going to be buying anything from them now.
