In case you're not aware...
Photobucket users are now required to pay (IIRC) $299US/year to use Photobucket as an image host. No way am I doing that.
If you have upgraded to the P500 plan, you will get to see images hosted by photobucket.
If you haven't upgraded, you will not see photobucket hosted images.
You will see a "upgrade to P500" logo instead.
What does this mean if you used photobucket as an image host in the past?
I'm not sure. Can someone who has upgraded tell me if my pics are still visible in one of my build threads please?
Here's one:

What are your options?
1. Directly load images into the forum after resizing to the forum requirements, and remove the previous links.
2. Get another image host, load the images there, and edit all your posts with the new links.
3. If you have one, use your ISP page as a host.
It's a pain, but it is what it is. Please consider it when posting pics up to the forum...

I'm a "member". Nothing more. So for me, well, I will look at something else.
And I got it wrong. It's not $299US a year. The only plan which allows 3rd party image hosting (what we need/use share pics straight into forums) is P500 @ $399.99US/year.
The is an image linking option with the P100 option at $99US/year...

PITA, but they're not the only game in town, a fact which will bite them in the ass big time.
