My latest communication with PhotoBucket TODAY!!
No thanks, PB. You have done this to me for the LAST time. Take my word for it. You will never again get the chance to deface my images. This started days ago on my board and has caused countless hours of work. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER AGAIN !!!! I want nothing more to do with PB as long as I live.

Subject: Important changes to you account
photobucket
Starting October 10th, you will see a discrete “Proudly hosted on Photobucket” watermark on any images you display on sites other than Photobucket.
This change will allow us to continue offering our image hosting service to you as a free user. If you don’t mind the watermark and wish to continue as a free user, you won’t need to do anything. If you prefer no watermarking, simply upgrade to one of our affordable premium plans starting at $4.03 per month and enjoy all of the benefits of membership.
For a limited time, upgrade now for just $1 per month! |

Hummph! What I read is this: "We will hold your images hostage until you pay up!"

Just thought you guys might like to know the latest in the PB saga. Guys, in my opinion, they are never coming back. They have alienated too many people....and they just keep doing it.

Hmmmm....something has changed today at PB. All images are missing, not just defaced. I could not access PB so I checked to see if they were up and running, I thought they might just have closed my account, but no. This was the answer there:
DOWN
.photobucket.com is DOWN for everyone.
It is not just you. The server is not responding...
So they either have some problems or they are gone. We'll see. I went there looking for some of my images that were missing from Joe's Board.

12-12 18 PhotoBucket Update This is the memo posted today at PB. They are still trying to correct the mistake they made. I think it is too little, too late. Their mistake was a bad one. How and Why Photobucket is Changing Today, I’m excited to let our members know about changes that Photobucket is making to its free and paid accounts as we prepare to roll out the next version of our service. Our future is rooted in returning to innovation; creating and offering solutions to make it easier for people to store, share, and communicate with others.
Over our 15-year history, many Photobucket offerings have come and gone, leaving our members fragmented into several different plans, storage sizes, and feature sets. It’s difficult to have a vibrant community when experiences and expectations of Photobucket are so different. Re-aligning our plan structure is key to bringing us together as the Photobucket community.
Upgrades to premium accounts. Our new premium plans will maintain many of their current features like enhanced image hosting, powerful privacy controls, and an ad-free experience.
New features include:
Better overall experience, delivering more value - faster and easier
Increased storage limits for Beginner and Intermediate plans
Enhanced security features - encrypted image hosting and storage
Safely store your originals - zero image compression
Improved hosting and sharing - access to our content delivery network, easier sharing across social media platforms
The return of video storage capability (coming 2019)
Upgrades to the Free account We believe our community benefits greatly when everyone has the ability to store and share images easily. To that end, we have increased storage from 2GB to 2.5GB to give our free members more room to grow. Additionally, to make sharing those images a better experience, hosted images are now also utilizing the same high-speed content distribution network as our premium accounts.
Starting 1/15/2019, all legacy free accounts will be moved to the new free plan
The new storage limit will also apply to legacy free accounts that are currently using more than 2.5GB of storage. We will not delete your images if you exceed the storage limit past 1/14/2019. If your account is over its available space, you will not be able to add any new images until you download or delete images until your account meets the new guidelines. If you need more storage you will need to upgrade to a premium account with sufficient space.
Making the Change Easier These changes are a vital step in becoming a better partner to all of our users. We also understand that change can be difficult even when it’s beneficial.
We’ve done two significant things to bring us together, give peace of mind, and make this transition as easy as possible:
Photobucket Member Bill of Rights. This is what you can expect from us and how we respect our community of members. You can read them here.
Exclusive Legacy Member Offering. For a limited time, we have lowered the cost of our Expert plan and introduced heavily discounted pricing for 12 months. Take advantage of this plan here. Exp. 12/31/18
We are committed to creating a better experience for our community of members and believe this is just the first step toward the future. We look forward to having you part of the Photobucket journey!
Ted Leonard - CEO, Photobucket  Hmmm....they no longer have their ugly logo/watermark plastered across my sigs posted from PB. They have backed off a lot. |

I am quite happy with Fotki and will probably remain with them.

I like Fotki too, Vicky, and I love Image Shack. I still have thousands of images stored at PB and go there to get them when I can't find them at Fotki or Image Shack. I will leave them there on a free account as long as they allow it. I will never again spend money with them. They can never again be trusted. |

Nope Foxy - the FB logo is still on your Photobucket stored images on this page. I am looking at them right now. The sun one had no logo on it, so I checked its properties, and sure enough, it wasn't a Photobucket stored image, but an Image Shack one.
Photo Bucket? Never again.

Cat I was going by the one above that I just posted, my Proud American sig. It is the one I went there to look for. At least it doesn't have their logo on it.

Yes Foxy. It does. See? It's the first one I saw with it on. Then I looked back at all the others on the page. Check out the bottom left just above the bottom part of the blue frame.

I think I am thoroughly confused, Cat. I am signed in as Lace and I see no PB logo on my Proud American sig. I see them on all the ones I posted in July and October. I won't post anymore from PB on any other Castle thread but this one. I know I still have sigs at PB that did not get migrated by Fotki. Some of my albums came through empty. Got most of them, but not all. I will continue to check out PB for the ones that are still there. I can still download them to my computer without the logo. Posted 12-12-18  |
