from above article!!!!

As of today, all hosted images that Photobucket's customers had lost access to last year have been restored.

"There are more changes coming, but we hope that this initial subscription offering and restoring access to customers' photos will help to reinstate goodwill among our customers who had depended on Photobucket to conduct business and share their work," said Leonard.

Oddly, mine never seemed to be locked out, having said that I probably only hosted a dozen or so for my limelight on here

thats actually a bit of a shame. Since they made the business ruining decision to charge there have been a lot less pop-ups, and as I do use it as a storage facility thats been really good.

Suspect the pop-ups will now be back :roll:

That's amazing.

So great seeing all those images from years ago. Its enjoyable reading the old threads as well. Some bargains were had back then.
