pictures dissapearing

Post by Captainjoe » Tue May 14, 2013 6:01 am

noticed pictures are dissapearing.

Is there a site recommended to use for pictures, where this will not happen?

You mean they are disappearing from here? Shouldn't be, all pics posted here should be hosted by a different server, unless they start to delete pics after a time, then the link here would be no good either.

I don't believe that Photobucket photos have a time limit, but they can certainly "disappear" from this website if the link is disturbed in any way (i.e. photos are rearranged or deleted in Photobucket, etc.).

The other thing that can happen is that photos may not show up if you are using an internet connection that blocks certain information in websites. For instance when I am at work I cannot see the photos (show up as red "x"s) because my internet connection at work is firewalling some information. However I can see them normally when using my personal air card.

Some of my posts the pictures were deleted at photobucket as I cleaned up my account. Others were reorganized and so the link would have changed.

The messageboard doesn't have the ability to "fix" links when they change. If someone moves or deletes a picture that they have hosted somewhere, there's no way for the board to know that, so you get the broken link.

Thanks for mentioning my post. I reorganized my photos into "public" and "private" folders.
I'll post updated links
