In case anyone is wondering...

I host a lot of my images on Photobucket, and right now, they're not visible. It seems that where-ever they keep their servers (apparently somewhere in the mountain time zone) they have suffered a serious power outage. Been going on since yesterday morning. No word on when the might be back. But I believe once power is restored, they will return to their normal places in our pages.

To my growing annoyance (and I am certain I am not alone in this respect) Photobucket's 'service interruption is dragging into its second week; I am sorry that their failures are adversely impacting posts here. Moreover, I am reluctant to post anything with associated images that will not properly display. I cannot believe that a mere power outage is the culprit, despite their claims.

Photobucket is garbage! Ditch em and switch to Imgur instead.

That might work going forward. And what do I do with the nearly two thousand images I have in Wesworld? Better the devil you know than the devil you don't.

I agree, photobucket is garbage with extremely poor customer relations and I've been meaning to swap over to Imgur for some time now.

As if by magic, it seems that my Photobucket images are now visible - at least to me. Before I get overjoyed and start uploading though, would anyone else please advise if they too can see them?

Well, they have done it again. Photobucket has made some change that has FUBAR'ed all the photos I've link to the site. I am investigating what has happened.

Photobucket has not given any reasonable explanation for what happened, but at least my links have been re-established. I guess I can count that a good thing. I just hope it stays that way.

PB is garbage, I know why you haven't changed but they are determined to make things difficult.

Yes, they do seem to want to make the Photobucket experience as difficult as possible, even for paying customers. But with about 3K photos linked in Wesworld, the idea of re-linking them all is too daunting.
