Suck it Photobucket!

[Z51JEFF]

I just got a message from Photobucket that some of the free features have been disabled but would be restored should I choose to pay the $2.50 monthly fee. I'll get as many of my pictures as I can and then I'll delete my account.

Bad business move on their part. Unfortunately this may really screw up Dynomites very valuable Solutions threads.

I changed to TinyPic.com, seems to word well on the iPad.

We in rural South Dakota do not use the term "suck it"......we use "Stick It"

In CA......especially San Fran........OH....I will not get into that

On another topic but related to this thread........Some (as I do myself) organize a Thread with multiple posts........but in so doing, linking to any one post within that thread depends on the thread organization remaining constant (no posts deleted or repositioned). On CF for example A sticky I have showing multiple topics prolly should be reorganized but then many posts linked to from other threads would be lost. It gets a bit complicated.

Sometimes posts linked to in Solutions have photos lost for any number of reasons. Those links sometimes rely heavily on the photos and some do not rely heavily on the photos. If I find a linked post in Solutions that has lost credibility because of missing photos I will delete those links........ Or look for a similar post offering better information. I have deleted some links in Solutions wherein better more specific information has been found in more recent links.

AOL did this to me also. They discontinued my desktop software and said it would no longer work after a certain date unless I paid $4 or so a month. It annoyed me, as I have been a user since they began (sometime around the Civil War I think). They were good to their word--it no longer works on my computer. But before it was cut off I switched everything to Gmail. Gmail has a nifty utility that automatically transfers all your contacts and old emails, and keeps receiving AOL emails on Gmail for 30 days. Worked like a charm. I use AOL on my phone only to see if I missed anyone and to leave all the unwanted emails with AOL. I'll eventually drop that app. Maybe there is a photo service that has a similar transfer service. Personally I keep all my photos on my computer (well backed up elsewhere) and just post them when needed.--Bob
