Photobucket info
Just logged in to my account for the first time in a few years; the first 2 mb is FREE, not very much but enough for me!

I think so. But acadist mentioned the amount of disk space photobucket allows with free accounts.
Here is photobuckets pricing. Only the "plus 500" account allows 3rd party hosting.

I am only reporting on what the opening screen read when I opened Photobucket, maybe since you are already over their 'limit' you are not eligible for
the free amount. Just a guess on my part.

I don't see a picture in your post. Maybe your avatar?

Goodbye photo bucket.

What I say before any important decision.
F*ck it.

THAT would make SENSE
Offer users an opportunity to accept the new business model and (after a reasonable period) drop the hammer.
IF the vast majority of "free" users are like me and simply use the service for the 3rd party hosting while NEVER reading or responding to their ads
........................... where's the profit ?
If they wipe out whatever I've got there, no BFD. It happened previously (years ago) with imagecave.com.
My photos are ALL in files on the computers and (many) on walgreens.com.

Google is great for storage but does not post up easily since they do not store the photos as JPEG or GIF images which most sites need to post images.

Exactly, I'm thinking they intentionally make it impossible to use their servers to host photos displayed on other websites.

It doesn't. In fact, it's an expense. It increases the load on their servers.

It was great while it lasted and I see that all past posts have my photos removed.
It required so much effort to put my reports together. I hate photobucket right now.

Marc, if you click on "Share" on your image page, then click on the "Hotlink for forums", you can post the photo... like this:
Marc removed his link, but for those who want to post photos, this one seems to be a winner:
