Just in case others are wondering/annoyed by the Photobucket notices popping up in place of pictures…

Grrrr

Bunch of monster size ***ts.

And to top it all they currently have issues where it is not possible to bulk download pictures from their site. That feature is mysteriously broken.
Instead they suggest downloading them individually. Not sure how poorly they were off regarding business model/financing before, but they’ve totally blown it now.

imagur is much better, PB is always jammed with many advert and slow uploading…

Both TLF and seloc have a forum facility to upload pictures direct, including avatars.

Could something along those line be enabled on exiges.com? I have no idea what sort of IT wizardry is needed to sort it though :crazy:

David hasn’t upgraded the Exiges forum software in years, that’s not going to happen. Just glad it still exists (and created the FB page as a just-in-case backup).

Oh, ok. No worries :slight_smile:

Well I’ll use Flickr on here for now and upload proper to Mloc.

just used Flickr for the first time tonight, not as easy as PB but at least it works :wink:

Totally agree, uploading all my thread images is proving laborious :unamused:

I have been using ‘post image’ for several years.

Easy to use, upload and link. Once downloaded, select and copy the ‘hotline for forums’

Paste

Jobs a guddun.

tbh take it into your own hands and put the images in an S3 bucket and pay the pittance it costs to run a month.
