Now instead of the stratospheric fees they added a watermark to all pictures posted from free accounts, as an example see today's header

GRRR!

The problem is the archives of the message board, there are a lot of pictures already posted

I host my pictures at both Rocks Off (this place) and Photobucket Premium, the best pictures at Rocks Off and some (tabloid pictures, concert pictures, Joey’s pictures) at Photobucket

My Photobucket account is a paid account since I started it. At the beginning I had a lot of “Bandwidth Exceed” legends instead of the image

So this is a test, I’m going to post an image from my Photobucket account to see if also the premium accounts have the watermark

Of course Edith, but the point and I see I can’t explain is the archives, no problem for new and future pix by others. For me all in both rocksoff.org and Photobucket remain the same, no water mark in my pictures, but what about all already posted by others?

In short: the problem is the archives… No we have thousands of pictures with that fucking water mark!!

To repair their accounts they, the owners of free accounts, will need to move one by one all of their pictures to a new host and then edit one by one their messages here at the board, so forget it, a lot of work, other option is to pay, but for those moving from their free accounts to the paid account the fee is much higher than the one we (paid user) have now.

Now I’m sure you see my point… do ya?

Speaking of how photobucket sucks

my ex girl way back in the day sent me some pretty lovely pictures in a photobucket account

I love those pictures

I remember the username and password, come back years later to view the very pretty pictures

Even though I have the exact same password that was on the account--it doesn't meet the new password limit

I can't sign into the account
The pictures are private not public

Some bastard nerd at photobucket headquarters has access to nudies of my ex but I don't

This is good news, the pictures from your free accounts in our archives will not have the watermark! As I don't think they will reach the bandwidth limit as they are in the archives, not in the current topics. However the images from accounts exceeding the limit will have not just the watermark but will be blurred


This is the message from photobucket

What are the new limits?
Free hosters will be restricted to 25MB of hosting bandwidth per month beginning June 1, 2019.

Who will these changes affect?
These changes will affect any free hosters who use more than 25MB of bandwidth on any given month. These changes will affect only a small percentage of our most active hosters. The vast majority of our hosters will still enjoy our free service.

What happens if I go over my limit?
Free hosters who use more than 25MB of bandwidth will have all of their hosted photos watermarked and blurred. To restore hosting privileges simply purchase a premium subscription plan for unlimited monthly bandwidth.*

Wow that sucks...

It’s good news FOR US…, let me explain, the regulars who use to post images from their own accounts don’t use Photobucket anymore, but the old archives with literally thousands of images from Photobucket now will NOT show the watermark. And since they are in the archives I think it’s hard to reach the bandwidth.
