    Photobucket holds photo's Ransom

    100's of forums are without pictures as of late, There asking for $399 to unlock the accounts.
    I'm not payin' it so My build threads are all for nothin', I would say just delete them instead of them hangin' with no content.

    Yep i see it, many other Forums are having the same problem. I have 575 pics on there so maybe that has something to do with it.

    After being greeted with 5 pop-up ads every time I used Photobucket, I searched for a better site.

    https://imgur.com/ is my favorite. It's simple to use and is hosting 2,500 photos of mine! Once in a while their traffic gets heavy and the server stops responding, but typically lasts only a couple minutes.
    The founder of Imgur specifically created it for 3rd party site hosting. He was exhausted of sites such as Photobucket.
