If I've understood correctly all my images have disappeared as photobucket now want a fee to share.

Who is an alternative and free alternative ?

Thanks

On checking my posts all photos have disappeared from my posts on all forums :twisted: :twisted: so, I need a new hosting service for photos... Any thoughts?

I use www.pbase.com not free but $23 per year. Great site & have used for 10 years or so.

After some trial and error I have been directed by Chris on the 968 forum towards postimg.org for photo hosting specifically for forum images and so far it works well - monumentally better than Photobucket so in the midst of the frustration and anger with Photobucket it appears there is a silver lining.
