Yeah, PB is teh shagin' suck. On my gun forums, people are pissed off too. Imgur is also against 3rd party.

However, I can still make posts and link my pictures as before and they work..

Unfortunately the Photobucket thing has been going on over the last couple weeks. They can suck it. I'm not paying them.

It's not bad enough that they have suddenly and without warning decided to do this, but their hosting isn't even cheap. Hell, it's not even reasonable! I would bet that a dedicated web host such as Godaddy would have cheaper options, complete with your own domain name. Godaddy used to host this forum until we got too big for our britches... This will probably make photobucket go the way of cardomain, myspace, etc...

Mine worked fine till yesterday. Save what ya can and get off of there. Im locked out of mine. I can veiw some pictures but cant "download" any. Got an email two days ago saying it was suspended due to violation of a policy change some time last year with a link to my t-5 swap thread (which was what 4 years ago?) As the reason my account was locked.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

So, it looks like photobucket turned everyone's photos back on... That's a relief!

I was notified by photobucket that they will be deleting 100s of pics from my accounts by june. I imagine many of the pics on this thread will be gone.... Looks like an end of an era.... Anybody interested in this thread can click the print with pictures, and save as a PDF to your computer..... The file size is 437mb.


Thanks for all your support

7 years of work, WOW! 

I also have a black Cougar with turbines.  Your car is beautiful.  I also rock the white letter tires.

What size are the Firehawk tires and can you still buy them?  All I can find is cooper cobras and BFG

I didn’t get the notice but I pay $25/yr for the service. Got rid of all the adds and it’s not as herky jerky. So maybe mine are okay?

I've been using Flikr. I have heard they are going to go the same way as Photobucket at some point. My next route will be doing my own domain and server.
It's Gumby's fault.

No shiznit?  They give a 1TB max for free accounts as of now....  It's a shame as uploading to them was  near lossless with regards to photo quality.
