The old Scroll got zapped.

It took longer than I expected, though.

You've paid them, PC?

Glad to see your pretties alive and showing for sure!

I've been paying Photobucket ALL ALONG.
Very early, I had found I better would.

That's wise. And great for you. Very Happy

I still wonder ...

... reading a lot of comments about the photobucket trouble I've noticed that even longtime ppaying users are blocked because of "3rd party hosting" as long as they don't switch to the very expensive "plus500" account.

Must admit 400 $ a year are out of the question for me because
- I only use it for hosting
- they were very wonky and unreliable in the recent past
- for THAT fee I'd like to sort my pics the way I want (instead of pb rolling dices)
Much too expensive for the service I got and will probably get. And ... I see a good chance that pb will go down anyway in nearer future and the pics will be lost despite spending a considerable sum of money.

I don't trust them anymore. Not at all. That's a pity because I really liked some of their features.

You know, dear... It PERFECTLY illustrates how some kinds of businesses are BECOMING abusive, with time.
First, it's 'for free', but you CAN pay ( it's cheap ).
THEN... if you did NOT pay while it WAS cheap... you're trapped :
It becomes : pay ( MORE ) or bye.

That's something I learned LONG ago.
NOTHING is 'for free'.

If all the avatars do not display, refresh ( F5 ) the page.

I've refreshed ... even cleared my cache.

I'm afraid it will not help, PC. Forumotion has blanked all Photobucket pictures. Sad

DAMN, yes, you're right!

It's getting worse and worse.

Well, I tried two other image hosting systems, but they change each picture id, which would make the re-building of the gallery a total nightmare.

If anyone here knows a "free" ( for now ) image hosting system that actually works ( the one used by this forum here still does NOT work for me ) and that does NOT change the file name, AND that does NOT delete the pictures after some time... I shall gladly adopt it.

Until then, no more avatars, here, sorry, elf-friends.

I'd like to find one of that kind, too. Looks like "scrambled" file names are considered favorable nowadays. :/ For now I'm working with imgserv nevertheless.

Found a suggestion posted in support and made an adjustment in the security of the forum. Semms to have done the trick as they claimed it would. I just want to be sure the images came up for everyone else too

Still probably a good idea to search for a different host site. Who knows how photo bucket will last... Mad

Subject: Re: AVATAR GALLERY Thu Jul 27, 2017 3:54 pm

So here's what happened.

Photobucket decided to be knobs.
Forumotion decided to not allow photobucket images because reasons. I posted their statement on it somewhere around here.

That lasted not very long before they must have gotten so sick of EVERYONE complaining that even paid for accounts were no longer able to share their pictures that they started working on a solution .

statement about that is here

forumotion wrote:: Hello,

In order to satisfy a maximum of our users we'll give to the administrators the choice of letting the Photobucket pictures on their forum or not. We're currently developing a new solution.

If this last one is satisfying, we'll put it on your forum at the beginning of next week, and this could give to the administrator the possibility to keep the Photobucket pictures on their forum (some people might have a premium account...).

Because of it, the replacement of the Photobucket pictures announced before is reported until this new option is ready.

Thank you for your understanding and have a great day

YESTERDAY it went live.
Statement about that is here

forumotion wrote:: Good morning / afternoon,

This new solution is now online. Your Photobucket pictures should be disabled on your forum right now. Indeed, they automatically are replaced on your forum by an empty picture. However, you can display them easily, just by setting it in your administration panel > general > security

It's up to the administrators of the forum to activate it or not

Thank you for your patience

Kin activated that button about 30 seconds before I got there, I ended up turning it off and on again. lol!

This should clear up everything for everybody.

Unfortunately this is not linked to any other issues PC has been having that seem to be isolated to only his account. I am at a loss as to what to do without breaking it for everyone else in the mean time. Sorry 'bout that
