OK, so I just noticed that my siggy is not working thanks to Photobucket so I decided to change to postimage anyone else having the issues?
 
yuck is right. hate PhotoBucket - I believe my siggy is linked to PB too, but it looks like it still working for me. When I do finally get around to updating it ... I will be moving it over to postimage.
 
I've been having HUGE problems with photobucket. I don't know what happened to them but it's a nightmare to find anything without the site crashing. I'd love to hear what other people are using besides dropbox.

I don't see your siggie?

I switched to imgur awhile ago. It works, and it's so easy because it already has a BBCode share!
 
I got hit with a photo bucket message this afternoon.grrr. My siggy says one has to upgrade. No thanks. I will have to check out imgur.com too.
 
I don't use PB, but I noticed tonight that a blog I was reading had that same PB error site-wide in every place there was an image, so it looks like PB is having a total meltdown.

Funny because I do see it ... so thanks for telling me! LOL ... I guess I am in the same boat as @Dalis after all?? Guess it is really really time to update that siggy finally.

I use postimage now. It's super minimal, easy, no frills.
 
Oh man! If Photobucket does ever completely die, there are going to be so many images around here that disappear, especially on older blog posts and stuff. I do avoid Photobucket whenever possible, but I have used it a couple times recently for stuff for here. I'm going to have to check out another option... and then remember what that other option is when I need it again. :giggle Better make myself a sticky note!
 
imgur looks too busy with viral videos for me and I've almost never used photobucket but...it certainly had a lot of use in its time. I wonder what has happened to it.
 
I just swapped my over to imgur. Photobucket directed me to the $35.00 upgrade to keep hosting there. Added to that, I could not get my image back.
 
I'm going to update mine today ... what size does everyone make theirs? I have not done this in forever - I just kept grabbing the MOC one for the last two years ... learning curve ahead!
 
Mmmm, thinking I need to switch from photobucket to somewhere new :hummm
 
If you have a free photobucket account, you do have limits . . . so if you have images that are being viewed frequently on a variety of sites or blogs, then you'll quickly move out of the limits of the free account. I noticed it happened a lot towards the end of the month for me. My blog images, my siggies, everything would revert to those Photobucket standard images. Once I moved to my paid account (which I've had for forever and pay very little for), I've never had any further problems.
 
I had the free photobucket but it wouldn't let me upload images anymore so I set up a blog and post my images to that. I do need to check out other places.
