Is it just me? I’ve noticed on some old threads that some of the old pics are showing up..... not all, but some.

I have not noticed it yet. But maybe people are paying up.

They have recently sent me an offer for PB, down from $399.00 a year, to a more reasonable $19.99. If they'd have done that in the first place, I might be a customer. But now that I've seen how fantastically better Flickr is, I wouldn't go back if they paid me.

They keep sending me notifications that I need to renew my account and upgrade to one of their new plans (I've been on the $2.99/month plan for over 5 years now), but they have been threatening this for months and my pics are still visible. I wonder if there is some sort of legal block because they have accepted payment from me. I don't know, but I am using them as little as possible.

photobucket ruined so many forums, they are holding everyone's photos hostage.. they want a king's ransom to show the images again.

My pictures started reappearing here and there with no reason. I have not paid them anything. I have not received any notices from them, I haven't even been to their site in over a year. But some of my pics have reappeared.

Mine started reappearing too. I can still use photobucket (and put up with the adds) or now they have three different paid options (without adds). Used to be just one option. now there is a paid option starting at $5.99/mo. I still use the free one and my photos just started reappearing on here......I think they lost a lot of users and caught so much flak from users they backed down a little.

I think it is back up and working. My photos have reappeared on several sites, and I am still using the free account I signed up for over a decade ago. I think they got the picture that they would make more money selling lots of cheaper options and advertisements then selling more stupidly expensive options and advertisements.

I have not been to site since they wanted to charge. I logged in tonight and they have several offers for hosting photos. 2GB for $4.03 a month for 400 photos; 50GB for $5.83 a month for 10,000 photos. I have a new email and tried to get it verified to go further with no luck. Any time I tried to click on one of my pics in storage, the window kept showing up to verify my email.
