Photobucket 3rd party hosting suddenly back?

[Guest]

I just posted some links to old Photobucket shots . . . . . expecting links, and they appeared a photos.

WTF? All is forgiven, I was wrong about you, please, please give me another chance at 3[SUP]rd[/SUP] party hosting photographs. Think about all the good times we had together. Think about the kids (photos).

Is it just me that can see the actual photos, or can everyone? Is this just a Photobucket glich, or did Photobucket take me back?

She meant nothing to me. NOTHING, I swear.

I still use PB never paid to upgrade and they never blocked my pics. The thirty dollar fee was just automatically paid and I get a notice that they missed me. Weird. Maybe I just don't share enough pics.

Therein lies the mystery.

I never paid for a PB upgrade, and was approaching “65%” capacity before they pulled the plug on 3[SUP]rd[/SUP] party hosting. Other folks who had paid the $30 fee also had their 3[SUP]rd[/SUP] party hosted photos disappear appear as everything vanish into fugly “PLEASE UPDATE YOUR ACCOUNT TO ENABLE 3[SUP]RD[/SUP] PARTY HOSTING” icon,

“Enabled” to the tune of $400! I think not.

Now some of my old photos, some within in the same old post, are visible, and some are still PB icon’ed “PAY UP”

That Photobucket “business” plan seemed beyond the pale, and I don’t know if PB has had second thoughts. No notice from PB about any change, even in my spam e-mails.

I am often confused by modern life, so this comes as no surprise.

Never mind, must have been a temporary glitch. The photos are gone again.

I deleted my PB account and just moved everything to Google....works for me

Sorry I can't see your photos, Mike... maybe get some idea where to drive to fleeing the great white north.

...photos disappear appear as everything vanish into fugly “PLEASE UPDATE YOUR ACCOUNT...

They could at least have gone with something more visually pleasing, like...

PS... bunch of pirates, if you ask me...

--------------------------

A pirate walked into a bar.

The bartender said, "Hey, I haven't seen you in a while. What happened? You look terrible."

"What do you mean?" said the pirate, "I feel fine."

"What about the wooden leg? You didn't have that before."

"Well," said the pirate, "We were in a battle, and I got hit with a cannon ball, but I'm fine now."

The bartender replied, "Well, OK, but what about that hook? What happened to your hand?"

The pirate explained, "We were in another battle. I boarded a ship and got into a sword fight. My hand was cut off. I got fitted with a hook but I'm fine, really."

"What about that eye patch?"

"Oh," said the pirate, "One day we were at sea, and a flock of birds flew over. I looked up, and one of them pooped in my eye."

"You're kidding," said the bartender. "You couldn't lose an eye just from bird poop."

"Well... It was my first day with the hook."
