Photobucket Users - Please READ - Changed terms of use
As some of you may have noticed, Photobucket has changed their terms of service and NO LONGER allows 3rd party hosting with the free membership.
What this means is if you upload a photo and paste a link into a post on WC, we can't see it.
Alternate photo sites to consider:
Flickr
Google
icloud
Imgur
If you haver more than one photo, put them in a folder and insert a link to the folder rather than many individual links.
To make a link "clickable" either:
- Highlight it and then select the URL globe box at the bottom of this window.
- Add [url] right at the beginning and [/url] at the very end with no spaces.
This is one reason we have not allowed photo linking in our "Members Personal Page" section since the beginning.
Too many FREE photo hosting sites closed their doors back then and now look what Photobucket is doing.
It is too bad for many of you that have extensive photos on photobucket and use that for your primary photo storage.
I guess this refers to the old adage, "You get what you pay for".
I have noticed that photobucket has FAR too many pop up advertisements when trying to view anyone's photos.
I had no interest myself going to look at anything on photobucket.
Waste of time looking at pop up ads.
It shows you that the (i0cloud isn't everything, like Joe said nothing is free except his/this site thankfully.
Now we have to wait when the others follow suite (flikr, google, etc.) until then we'll try using them or just my own server and keep all our pictures on external hard drive or discs.

Good Luck photobucket users.
Joe, is it possible your site can host the lost pictures we need to continue the Whaler knowledge? This is a reference site and with the pictures gone the old treads that get into detail are pretty much useless when they depended on Photobuckets links. Oh, that is like 90% of the critically useful pictures.
