I am loving the pictures, especially the ones with Christmas decorations.
Oh, but don't worry. He posted a pic of a couple of people standing next to a camper, that proves he isn't making anything up.
I seem to remember "Mrs." Troll posting a picture to show she wasn't someone else, then outing herself as Scruff. When you start out lying you make it hard for anyone to believe you later on.
This is basically what the DIS has morphed into.
Ha ha, yeah.
Y'all are going to get coal in your stockings!
Santa doesn't approve of people being mean to others!
Things must have been very slow around here...you guys need a villain that bad!
I just noticed the picture of the day thread is coming up on 600,000 views.
We should see it happen very soon!!!
I don't (nor have I) use(d) Photobucket, and I agree that it's a sad situation to hold peoples pictures hostage. I would think, that at the very least they would have implemented something that would have allowed those photos that were already available to continue to be available.Checking on other forums, they're referring to it as "paying ransom".
It's also said that in the fine print PB says they have the rights to the photos so people who were using a free PB account can't even get back in and download/save their photos back. The only way is to pay. Of course, they should/might still have the originals but that's more of a hunt.
I had the 20gb storage plan that I re-upped for back in April and in hunting around PB they are going to let folks like us go into next year. But I'm going to pull my stuff back. I take my Chromebook with me and I can use the Upload DIS function off my phone. That means, however, no live pix while I'm in the park but so be it.
Personally I hope Photobucket goes bankrupt pulling a stunt like this. To make 3rd party hosting only available on their top tier is greedy. But they are free to be capitalists and we their (former) customers are free to adjust and do business another way.

PS - I had forgotten that this Chatter Thread was out there separate from the real Picture Thread. Thanks Denise!
