So, after using Photobucket for years, I have received an email telling me that if I want to continue 3rd party hosting, I have to pay $100 per year. Anybody else get that message? I think they are about to lose me. Anybody using a good alternative?

Remember, write in really small words that even I can understand, please.
 
When they first started this extortion campaign they demanded $400. You are getting a deal! :rolleyes:
 
Imgur is working well for me too. Took a little while to get used to, but I like it better now. If Photobucket had offered the plan for 100$ initially I might have gone for it...but the 400$ "ransom" demand really turned me off big time. I'm glad I switched.
 
Eff Photobucket and their extortion schemes. I just abandoned it last year, with about 10 years of photos in my account. Goodbye.

Head for Imgur. Easy and quick. I especially like their "re-sizing" tools for boards like this one.

Imgur. Photobucket's tactics of simply not allowing you to access years of photos unless you pay has lost them LOTS of customers. Serves them right.
 
I knew that things were going south at Photobucket when they started putting crappy pop-up ads all over the place. I couldn't even click on one of my photos without 3 stupid ads taking over my screen.
