Re: Photobucket

Yes Mart, I don't mind paying for a decent service either, but placing conditions etc on it, is not my thing. Even £61 a year is a bit much from what I've seen...and who's to say they won't bump it up more? I've found a better service so I'm happy

You're right. £61 is a bit much. I'm not sure what I would have been willing to pay having used them for free for a long time. Maybe £20 - £25. At that price, more people might use their service and they'd make more money. I think £61 could make people go somewhere else.

Re: Photobucket

Got all my photos out of it. I've been using Postimage since they put their watermark on my photos. You have to email them to delete your account

Re: Photobucket

I used Photobucket for years and it was a good service, then suddenly a huge cost of belonging! I thought it was just greedy! I use Imgur now.

Re: Photobucket

I expect Photobucket lost a lot of people when they started to charge, I wonder how they're doing now. I certainly hope Postimage doesn't start charging. My only grumble with them is that they don't do video storage. I take a lot of video when I'm out n about but would like to be able to store it properly alongside my photos. I have a private channel on You Tube at the moment but I'd rather have some place else.

Re: Photobucket

Imgur ask for support via a company called 'Coil' but they aren't insisting on it.
